Question

Accepted Answer

According to Kohlberg, the level in which the child's morality is controlled by the fear of punishment is called the "premoral level."

Explanation:
Kohlberg's theory of moral development is divided into three main levels, each with two stages:

1. **Pre-conventional Level (Premoral Level):**
   - Stage 1: Obedience and Punishment Orientation - At this stage, a child's sense of morality is externally controlled. Children obey rules to avoid punishment. This is the stage where morality is driven by the fear of punishment.
   - Stage 2: Individualism and Exchange - At this stage, children recognize that there is not just one right view handed down by authorities. Different individuals have different viewpoints.

2. **Conventional Level:**
   - Stage 3: Good Interpersonal Relationships - At this stage, children are good in order to be seen as being a good person by others. Therefore, answers relate to the approval of others.
   - Stage 4: Maintaining the Social Order - The child becomes aware of the wider rules of society. Judgments concern obeying rules to uphold law and order.

3. **Post-conventional Level (Self-accepted Moral Principle Level):**
   - Stage 5: Social Contract and Individual Rights - The child becomes aware that while rules/laws might exist for the good of the greatest number, there are times when they will work against the interest of particular individuals.
   - Stage 6: Universal Principles - People at this stage have developed their own set of moral guidelines which may or may not fit the law. The principles apply to everyone.

The correct answer is Option 1: premoral level, as it corresponds to the pre-conventional level where morality is based on avoiding punishment.

The other options are incorrect because:
- Option 2: Conventional morality level refers to the second level where individuals conform to societal norms and rules.
- Option 3: Self-accepted moral principle level refers to the post-conventional level where individuals follow self-chosen ethical principles.
- Option 4: Morality level is a vague term and does not specifically refer to any of Kohlberg's defined levels.
