How Learning Disabled Adolescent Boys Make Moral Judgments.
Derr, Alice M.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v19 n3 p160-64 Mar 1986
Twenty-five learning disabled adolescents were administered Kohlberg's Moral Judgment Interview. Compared to the average achieving adolescents, LD Ss showed less evidence of ability to view moral dilemmas from a community or societal perspective. LD Ss also exhibited a substantial amount of reasoning from an egocentric perspective focusing on needs and desires of the self. (Author/CL)
