Kohlbarg Moral Development Theory:

Kohlbarg says in his theory moral development is a continual process that occurs
throughout the lifespan. Kohlberg's theory outlines six stages of moral development
within three different levels.
Level and Stages of Moral Development:

Preconventional morality is the earliest period of moral development. It lasts until
around the age of 9. There are two stages within this level.

Stage 1. Obedience and Punishment

Stage 2. Individualism and Exchange

Level 2 Conventional Morality

The next period of moral development is marked by the acceptance of social
rules regarding what is good and moral.
During this time, adolescents and adults internalize the moral standards they
have learned from their role models and from society.
