Arrange the stages in Moral Development in a sequence :

(i) Principle Orientation
(ii) Obedience-Punishment Orientation
(iii) Authority and Social order Orientation
(iv) Naively egoistic orientation
(v) Contractual-legalistic Orientation
(vi) Interpersonal Concordance Orientation

Choose the correct answer from options given below :

  • A.(i) (vi) (v) (ii) (iv) (iii)
  • B.(v) (iv) (vi) (i) (iii) (ii)
  • C.(ii) (iv) (vi) (iii) (v) (i)
  • D.(vi) (v) (iii) (i) (iv) (ii)

Answer: C

The correct sequence is (ii) (iv) (vi) (iii) (v) (i).

Kohlberg's six stages of moral development, in three levels:

  1. Pre-conventional: obedience and punishment orientation (ii), then naively egoistic, instrumental orientation (iv).
  2. Conventional: interpersonal concordance, the 'good boy, nice girl' orientation (vi), then authority and social order maintaining orientation (iii).
  3. Post-conventional: contractual-legalistic, social contract orientation (v), then universal ethical principle orientation (i).

The other sequences start with principle orientation or the contractual stage, which are the highest stages, or place interpersonal concordance first, so they do not follow the order of development.
