A Comparative Study of Moral Development of Korean and British Children.
Baek, Hye-Jeong
Journal of Moral Education, v31 n4 p373-91 Dec 2002
Explores Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development in relation to Korean and British children. Illustrates cultural differences in moral orientations. Notes it was not possible to match responses from Korean children to Kohlberg's manual. Suggests that interpretation of children's moral reasoning should be based on consideration of cultural influences. (CAJ)
