Document Summary
Gender and dilemma differences in real-life moral judgments (g. wark and d. krebs) Investigated the effects of gender, gender role, and type of moral dilemma on moral maturity and moral orientation. Ppl were given personal attributes questionnaire (kohlberges test of moral judgment) and instructions to discuss a personal and impersonal real-life moral dilemma. Females were more consistent than males in moral stage. Males were more consistent in moral orientation. Females made higher stage and more care-based moral judgments than males made on personal real life dilemmas. Observed variations occurred primarily because males reported more stage 2, justice-pulling antisocial dilemmas than females. Females reported more stage 3, care-pulling prosocial dilemmas than males. Two models share a fundamentally important assumption, that differences in moral judgment stem primarily from internal differences btw ppl. Kohlberg-moral maturity stems from the internal, cognitive structures of the whole that define stages of moral development.
