Question

Item 10 Item 10 Jack registered as a conscientious objector during the Vietnam War. He believes that it is wrong to take human life. He is willing to serve time in jail, rather than take part in an armed conflict. Jack's reasons for not going to war reflect the _____ stage of moral reasoning established by Kohlberg.

Answer 1

The answer is: postconventional

Step-by-step explanation:

The postconventional stage of moral development refers to the level when a person´s sense of morality is defined by more abstract principles and values. A person decides which rules are right or wrong, and if they are wrong how they should be changed. Individuals finally realize that they are separate entities from society and they must live by their own ethical principles.
