Detailed explanation-1: -In stage one, individuals focus on the direct consequences that their actions will have for themselves. For example, an action is perceived as morally wrong if the person who commits it gets punished. The worse the punishment for the act is, the more ‘bad’ the act is perceived to be.
Detailed explanation-2: -Level 1 (Preconventional) Obedience and Punishment Orientation – at this stage of moral reasoning, the individual acts from a belief that if they do something wrong they will be punished, so that the best reason for avoiding doing wrong is to avoid punishment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Stage 1: Punishment/obedience orientation Behaviour is determined by consequences. The individual will obey in order to avoid punishment.
Detailed explanation-4: -Stage 1 (Obedience and Punishment): The earliest stages of moral development, obedience and punishment are especially common in young children, but adults are also capable of expressing this type of reasoning. According to Kohlberg, people at this stage see rules as fixed and absolute.
Detailed explanation-5: -Stage 4: Maintaining the Social Order In this stage, laws and social order reign supreme. Rules and regulations are to be followed and obeyed. In the above example, the man should not steal the medicine because it is against the law. Stage four shows the moral development of a person as a part of a whole society.
