Question

"a child in which of piaget's stages of moral development does not take intentions into account when determining whether a behavior is moral or immoral?"

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer is: Heteronomous Phase.

 

Psychologist Jean Piaget developed two phases of moral development – heteronomous phase and autonomous phase. Heteronomous phase is the first phase and it is more common with children as they don’t take intentions into the cause (like in autonomous phase) when determining whether the behavior is moral or immoral and they believe that rules come from authority figures in one's life such as parents, teachers, and God.
