Childrens's Conceptions of Moral and Prudential Rules.
Tisak, Marie S.; Turiel, Elliot
Child Development, v55 n3 p1030-39 Jun 1984
Investigates whether children differentiate between the social-interactional, moral aspects of harm and the nonsocial, prudential aspects of harm. A total of 90 subjects 6, 8, and 10 years of age were administered an interview about two moral rules and one prudential rule. Three types of assessment were obtained: criterion judgments, justifications, and attributions of importance. (Author/RH)
