Moral reasoning is the subdivision of psychology which involves the fundamental philosophy of moralities and integrities. Youngsters show moral reasoning skills at early adolescent age.
It’s a process by which a person can discriminate what is right and what is wrong. It can occur within one’s own self or between the individuals. It promotes healthy relationship when adhered to.
According to Higgins students from urban high school showcased a high moral reasoning as they were exposed to education from a very little age and they know to distinguish between what is good and what is not good.
For Higgins, moral reasoning is related to the human being's ability to be and remain responsible for all the actions he / she performs and the consequences that they generate, through guidelines that help the individual to differentiate good from evil, and to act ethically and morale in the face of situations. For him, this concept begins to establish itself from adolescence, with high school being the best time for teenagers to stimulate their moral reasoning.
For Higgins, urban high school is the one that most provides the development of this reasoning, since it allows a plurality of individuals and behaviors.
