moral reasoning can be justfied by reason and by emotion. However, this can be debated on. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.64.73.78 (talk) 18:24, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Revisions (2011)

[edit]

This page has clearly been significantly improved. The only problem I see is all the talk on Kolhberg and Piaget, condiering they have their own page. In both of their pages moral reasoning is heavily discussed. Spelling and grammar seem fine. I don't think there is much else that you could include in this page without overlapping other pages.

I agree with Ng179320, you obviously added a lot of information, but it might be a little much on Piaget and Kolhberg. Your references will need to be cleaned up too. You used multiple footnotes for a single reference. I would use ref name="" in the tag to create a group. Then you just need to call ref name="" to call the same source again. Look here Help:Wiki_markup#References_and_citing_sources and check out the complete ref tag and referencing it again. --KJamison7 (talk) 01:35, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is obvious that this article has been substantially expanded. Overall this page is presented in a very clear and organized manner, however I would suggest making a separate heading for the four characteristics of moral reasoning. The only other thing that I would maybe consider looking into is the concept of the ghost in the machine, which could be a possible extension to your philosophy section in the article. I think it could give an interesting view on how we control our behavior as this philosophy takes a look at mind-body dualism. Overall though you seem to have done a lot of good work! well done! --Rushdwb (talk) 15:41, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so you added a ton of info. I do agree with the above statements though. You could improve it by adding some stuff outside of kohlberg and Piaget. I had some technical problems with my page too so I can understand the references error. I'm not too tech savvy anyway. I think you write well too and the information is good and well used. It's hard, especially for moral reasoning, to not overlap some information from other pages. Good job man. Well done!--Rgearin09 (talk) 23:08, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Revisions (November 2019)

[edit]

Hello, I plan to make revisions and add materials to this article as part of a graduate-level course on social psychology. The current version of the article introduces moral reasoning as a subfield of developmental psychology that focuses on the human development of moral reasoning capacity. In line with this view, theories from Jean Piaget and Lawrence Kolhberg take up most of the article. Their contributions were obviously seminal to the field, but the resurgence of moral reasoning as a topic of study in social and cognitive psychology since the 2000s also deserves discussion. While avoiding overlap with contents in moral psychology article as possible, I will attempt to update the article by highlighting the connections between moral reasoning and other general theories proposed in social and cognitive psychology, such as causal reasoning and constraint-satisfaction models of reasoning.

I finished adding the materials ('In social cognition' part added). I focused on introducing relatively recent (1990s~2010s) findings from empirical and computer simulation studies on moral reasoning. This involves not only the basic moral judgment of right and wrong, but also the related social judgments about an agent's moral character, intention, and desire. I used three key topics to base my summary on: dual-process theory in moral judgment and decision, motivated reasoning, and causality and intentionality. These were not really theoretically justified categories to use for organizing the studies, but were rather arbitrary categories I perceived as useful. I believe there isn't yet a good enough review work that classifies and organizes the studies based on a systematic criterion. If you have a better way to reorganize the materials, that will be great. --JunhoLee08 (talk) 01:53, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
