Explanation:

There are six stages in Kohlberg's theory of moral development. They include;

Stage 1 Pre-conventional (Common among children under the age of 9)

Obedience and punishment orientation  Self-interest orientation

Stage 2 Conventional (Common among pre-teens, teens, and some adults)

Interpersonal accord and conformity  Authority and social-order maintaining orientation:

Stage 3 Post-Conventional (rarely displayed by some adolescents and adults)

Social contract orientation  Universal ethical principles
