Level I-Pre Conventional Morality

The document outlines Kohlberg's stages of moral development, which he divided into three levels. Level I focuses on obedience and self-interest where right and wrong is based on rewards and punishment. Level II involves conforming to social norms and expectations to gain approval. Level III involves reasoning based on abstract ethical principles of justice and universal human rights, where moral reasoning is separate from legal rules.
