Psychosocial Maturity and a Dimension of Moral Judgement. Johns Hopkins University Center for Social Organization of Schools, Report No. 209.
Bond, Lloyd; Greenberger, Ellen
This study investigates the relation between Psychosocial Maturity and a dimension of moral judgment. Form D of the Psychosocial Maturity Inventory and Form B of the Survey of Ethical Attitudes (SEA) were administered to 182 tenth grade students. Predicted negative correlations between SEA and two Social Adequacy subscales were marginally significant for male students and not significant for female students. A previous finding, that SEA scores are curvilinearly related to maturity, was not supported. Implications of the findings for developmental models of moral development are discussed. (Author)
