Detailed Explanation of Kohlberg's Conventional Level
According to Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development, the Conventional Level typically spans adolescence and early adulthood. Within this level:
- Stage 3 (Good Boy/Nice Girl Orientation): The individual is driven by the desire to secure social approval, meet the expectations of others, and maintain positive interpersonal relationships.
