Biosocial <br />development relates to the growth and developments within the human body and is viewed as pertaining to physical <br />growth beginning at the conception of human life through to its death. Included within the biosocial development <br />domain are biological functions, cultural influences, and environmental factors. All these aspects affect all stages of growth <br />from the ‘cradle to the grave.’ Cognitive development theory is directed at the mental aspect of growth and includes <br />memorizing and processing challenges or problems at every stage of human growth. This development domain includes <br />the capacity to analyze, evaluate and process decisions as and when they occur. This capacity to perceive and understand <br />is divided into stages or phases of development, occurring throughout the ‘cycle’ of life. This review turns to three of many <br />developmental theories, namely ‘Behavioral’, ‘Cognitive’ and ‘Sociocultural’. While analyzing these theories, the focus is <br />directed at how they impact and influence moral values and practices. Furthermore, more specific attention is targeted <br />towards how moral development theories have brought about human behavior changes. When ascertaining the relativity <br />of morality within human behavior, we aim to seek to determine how issues and theories relating to morality enables <br />ethical standards to be planned and implemented within the area of medicine and human services <br /> </p>}, number={3}, publisher={DNT Ortadoğu Yayıncılık A.Ş.}
