"I am impressed with the overall critical analysis and this is helping me greatly with my own pending TMA due in shortly. I thought this was well written and if found the informatiion relevant to the question. "

"#1# This essay asks candidates to describe in detail Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development in Children, and then discuss (evaluate) the strengths and weaknesses, whilst referring to a second theory of development. The candidate retains consistent focus on the description and the analysis of their answer, and as is expected, the candidate draws on many different sources and other pieces of research while answering their question. Instead of just one other theory, the candidate refers to at least two others, with a possible third is we include their comment on Rest, though an examiner may point out that Rest's study would require a few lines dedication just to colour in what he actually did, rather than just name-dropping him. #2# The Level of Analysis is very good. The introductory paragraph is excellent and right there and then we see the candidate has a well-established understanding of the basis of Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development in Children and the study he conducted in order to retrieve this data. There is mentioning of it being cross-culturally replicated, but perhaps an explicit statement about this being a strength as the high concordance with each repeat of the experiment showed the results' reliability could give the candidate's answer further good points. After the description of the study, there is an extremely well-detailed paragraph outlining the Theory, using the specialist terminology coined by Kohlberg himself such as "Obedience and Punishment" and "Post-conventional Morality", with brilliant examples of how a person operating at each level might view the Heinz Dilemma (the most famous moral dilemma that Kohlberg proposed to his participants). The appreciation of other theories is very good - the second theory does not have to be so in depth as your first. The use of Gilligan's theory is good because it directly challenged Kohlberg even after she worked with him in developing his moral scale which she believed only pertained to males. #3# The Quality of Written Communication is fine. There are no worries or issues to be commented upon in this answer. It is very well-written, well-structured and well-informed."
