From Halves to Wholes in Moral Developmental Theory: How a New Stage Taxonomy Integrates Kohlberg’s So-called Transitional Stages

Yıl 2003, Cilt: 1 Sayı: 1, 139 - 169, 01.01.2003

Öz

Moral reasoning that does not fit into the framework of Kohlberg stages
is often scored at transitional stages. Those subjects are supposed to be not in
a state of equilibrium, but rather one of internal conflict. The present article challenges
this view, arguing that ‘Stage 4 1/2’-reasoning is no more inconsistent
than any other type of moral reasoning and that ‘Stage 4 1/2’ should be regarded
as a stage in its own right. This is possible within the framework of a new stage
taxonomy which accommodates ‘Stage 4 1/2’ as a distinct cornerstone in the architecture
of moral cognition.
