Answer and Explanation:
Hello. You forgot to say that this question is about "The Crucible".
In "The Crucible" hysteria is caused by irrational fear and the constant sense of threat that the entire population feels towards each other. This fear is a feeling that the population releases at once, having suppressed it for a long time. Making them start accusing each other in a completely insane way, in an attempt to protect themselves from witchcraft and the worship of the devil that is the source of all this fear.
As a result, the population enters a state of complete chaos, which grows progressively as time passes. The charges led many members of society to be arrested and even sentenced to death. This prevented the necessary work from being done to the population, in addition to causing a disruption to the whole society, increasing hysteria due to the needs that the population began to feel.
The stage of moral development Kohlberg would most likely say that Lu is demonstrating is:
D. Conventional stage.
According to Lawrence Kohlberg's theory, there are three possible moral development stages:
1. Pre-conventional
2. Conventional
3. Post-conventional
The one that matters most to us here is the conventional stage of moral development. This is when we internalize the values and rules modeled and taught to us by adults.
At the conventional stage, we do not question authority. We accept what we are told we should or should not do.
This is the stage where Lu is at (notice that the name Lena also appears in the question). She has accepted the fact that vaping is illegal, for that reason, is not going to do it.
