Gilles finds it difficult to consider two points of view when presented with the Heinz dilemma. He tends to overlook people's intentions and, instead, focuses on fear of authority and avoidance of punishment as reasons for behaving morally. Gilles is at which of Kohlberg's stages of moral development?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Stage 1. The punishment and obedience orientation

Explanation:

Laurence Kohlberg extended Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development to explain the moral development of children. His theory of psychological development is divided into three levels which are mentioned below:

1) Pre-conventional

2) Conventional

3) Post-conventional

These three stages are further divided into two sub-stages. The first sub-stage of pre-conventional is called the punishment and obedience orientation. At this stage, a child's action is driven by the authority figure. He acts not following his conscience but to avoid punishment.
