    • Inability to make friends

    • Alcohol and drug problems

    • Criminality

    • All of above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of above
    Explanation
    If children lack moral development, it is likely that they will face several negative consequences. They may struggle to make friends because they may not understand or adhere to social norms and values. Additionally, the lack of moral development can lead to alcohol and drug problems as children may not have a strong sense of right and wrong and may engage in risky behaviors. Finally, the absence of moral development can also contribute to criminality as children may not have a strong moral compass and may engage in illegal activities. Therefore, all of the mentioned consequences can happen to children who lack moral development.

    Jean Piaget believes children development is based on two stages: Heteronomous and Autonomous.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development includes four stages: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational. However, Piaget also discussed the development of moral reasoning in children. According to Piaget, children progress through two stages of moral development: heteronomous morality and autonomous morality. In the heteronomous stage, children view rules as fixed and unchangeable, and they believe that breaking rules leads to immediate punishment. In the autonomous stage, children understand that rules are created by people and can be changed through mutual agreement. Therefore, the statement that Jean Piaget believes children's development is based on two stages, heteronomous and autonomous, is true.

    Based on Jean Piaget's theory, the transition between Heteronomous and Autonomous includes _______?

    • Premoral

    • Moral Realism

    • Moral Relativism

    • All of above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of above
    Explanation
    According to Jean Piaget's theory of moral development, the transition between Heteronomous and Autonomous includes all of the options mentioned. During the Heteronomous stage, children view morality as being determined by external authority figures and rules. As they transition to the Autonomous stage, children develop a more internalized sense of morality and begin to understand that rules can be flexible and subject to individual interpretation. This transition involves the development of moral realism, which is the understanding that rules are important and should be followed, and moral relativism, which is the recognition that moral judgments can vary depending on the situation. Therefore, all of the options are correct.

    _________ means recognizing the difference between accidental and intentional action.

    Correct Answer
    Moral reasoning
    Explanation
    Moral reasoning refers to the process of making judgments about what is right or wrong, good or bad, based on ethical principles. Recognizing the difference between accidental and intentional action is an important aspect of moral reasoning. It involves understanding that intentional actions are deliberate and have a purpose or motive behind them, while accidental actions occur unintentionally and without a specific intention. This distinction is crucial in determining moral responsibility and evaluating the ethical implications of actions.

    • Moral domain

    • Psychological domain

    • Innate domain

    • Social domain

    Correct Answer
    A. Innate domain
    Explanation
    Elliot Turiel's Moral Domain Theory includes three components: moral domain, psychological domain, and social domain. The innate domain is not included in Turiel's theory. The theory focuses on how individuals develop their understanding of moral concepts, psychological processes related to moral judgments, and the influence of social factors on moral development. The innate domain, which refers to innate or biologically determined aspects of morality, is not considered in Turiel's theory.

    According to Albert Bandura, the idea of children learn through social contacts and the adults are modeling behaviors are based on _________?

    Correct Answer
    Social Learning Modeling
    Explanation
    Albert Bandura's theory of social learning emphasizes that children learn through social contacts and that adults serve as models for their behavior. This theory suggests that children observe and imitate the behaviors they see in adults, which influences their own actions and learning. This process is known as social learning modeling, where individuals learn by observing and imitating others.

    Kolhberg's stage is highly reliable. This explains how parents impact the children development and it is emphasis on caring.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The explanation for the answer "False" is that the statement is not accurate. Kohlberg's stages of moral development are a theoretical framework proposed by Lawrence Kohlberg to explain the development of moral reasoning in individuals. It does not specifically focus on the impact of parents on children's development or emphasize caring. While parents and other factors can influence moral development, Kohlberg's stages are primarily concerned with the cognitive processes involved in moral reasoning. Therefore, the statement that Kohlberg's stage is highly reliable and emphasizes the impact of parents on children's development is incorrect.
