Answer:

Conventional

Explanation:

Kohlberg did some studies on morality and proposed a theory on moral development.

Kohlberg defined three different levels of morality (and each level consists in 2 stages).

These levels are

  • Pre conventional
  • Conventional
  • Post conventional

In the preconventional level, the person's morality is externally controlled and therefore acts based on what the punishment will be (1st stage) or based on how good will it be for him/her to act in some way (2nd stage)

The conventional level stages also have to do with external controls but now the person thinks in function of ensuring positive relationships and societal order. The third stage here depends on the approval of others. The fourth stage has to do with accepting rules because they preserve the society order  and functioning.

The postconventional level stages are defined in more abstract principles or values. The 5th stage sees the world as a place with different values that must be respected. Finally the 6th stage is based in universal ethical abstract principles.

In this example, the student believes that plagiarism is acceptable because of what her friends think. We can see that her belief is influenced by external controls and she likely wants the approval of her peers and that's why she thinks that. Thus, we can say that she is in the conventional level of Kohlberg's theory.

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Sam is currently on the obedience and punishment stage of moral development, which is the first stage in the first level (Preconventional).

Explanation:

The preconventional level centers on the idea that a <em>child's morality is </em><em>externally driven</em>, which means that his/her moral behavior is<em> influenced by an external stimulus</em> and not from his/her own thinking.

The first stage in this level is known as obedience and punishment and it occurs when the child <em>obeys rules</em><em> in order to </em><em>avoid punishment,</em> not because he/she believes in these rules.

In this case, Sam is not lending the toy because he thinks his mother will get mad and he will be punished, thus he opts to obey the idea he has of his mother in order to avoid a punishment he believes he will get.

Why did John Wilkes Booth plan to kill Lincoln fail
leva [86]

Answer:

A Marylander by birth, Booth was an open Confederate sympathizer during the war. A supporter of slavery, Booth believed that Lincoln was determined to overthrow the Constitution and to destroy his beloved South. After Lincoln’s reelection in November 1864, Booth devised a plan to kidnap the president and spirit him to Richmond, where he could be ransomed for some of the Confederate prisoners languishing in northern jails. Booth enlisted a group of friends from Washington to aid him in his attempt. That winter, Booth and his conspirators plotted a pair of elaborate plans to kidnap the president; the first involved capturing Lincoln in his box at Ford’s Theater and lowering the president to the stage with ropes. Booth ultimately gave up acting to focus on these schemes, and spent more than $10,000 to buy supplies to outfit his band of kidnappers
