✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Explanation of Kohlberg's Universal Ethical Principle Orientation
Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development places the Universal Ethical Principle Orientation as the sixth and final stage within the post-conventional level.
- Autonomous Decision Making: Individuals at this stage make moral decisions based on self-chosen ethical principles that encompass universal justice, human rights, and equality, transcending laws and social norms.
- Human Dignity: If a law violates fundamental human dignity or justice, an individual operating at this stage possesses the moral courage to oppose that law.
- Pedagogical Implication: Fostering this stage in classrooms encourages critical thinking, social justice, and independent moral reasoning rather than blind obedience.
Therefore, option (c) is the most authentic and scientifically valid explanation.
