Carlo, Gustavo; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v32 n2 p231-40 Mar 1996
Examined correlates of prosocial moral reasoning (PMR) in two studies. Study one investigated differences in PMR in Brazilian children and adolescents and U.S. adolescents. Study two examined relations between PMR and prosocial behaviors and gender role orientations of Brazilian adolescents. Age and gender differences in PMR were similar for Brazilian and U.S. adolescents; U.S. adolescents scored higher on internalized moral reasoning. (Author/DR)
