Question

Tapi believes that all human beings have certain inalienable rights that need to be protected. She believes that the current law in her country that prohibits interracial marriage is unfair and should be changed. According to Kohlberg, which of the following describes Tapi's level of moral reasoning?
a) post-conventional.
b) conventional.
c) pre-conventional,

Answer 1

Answer:

a) post-conventional.

Explanation:

Lawrence Kohl-berg extended Piaget's (1932) theory of moral development and his own theory composed of three stages, each of which further divided into two phases. Post conventional morality is the highest stage of morality in Kohlberg's model, where people have established their personal set of ethics and morals which they use to guide their behavior. While sometimes their principles and values are in line with social norms, but contradictions can occur between what is socially appropriate and what a person thinks as in the case of Tapi  (mentioned in the question).
