| Summary: | Abstract: Lawrence Kohlberg’s theory of moral development includes three levels: (1) a preconvention level, where judgments are based on self-interest. (2) A conventional level, where judgments are based on traditional family values and social expectations and (3) a post conventional level, where judgments are based on more abstract and personal ethical principles.

Adequate resolution of each crisis leads to greater personal and social competence and a stronger foundation for solving future crises.
