Abstract
Write a short introduction to your abstract of 2 to 3 sentences stating the importance of understanding and
studying moral development, such as (in your own words entirely): “Moral development is seen as one of
the key human developmental areas. Although moral growth takes place throughout the lifespan and ideally
culminates in a deep level of moral development and reasoning as a permanent personality characteristic,
it is especially during adolescence that moral development, or the lack thereof, is reflected in specific
values and ideals.”
(in your own words entirely): The development of moral judgment during adolescence is extremely
interesting and has been investigated by various theorists and researchers. Many factors also seem to
influence moral development.
1. Write the following bullet points into PARAGRAPH form in your own words AS PART OF
THE ABSTRACT:
- theoretical framework for study based on: the theories by Kohlberg and Piaget as these
two theories studied this same topic we are proposing to study.
- The proposed research study aims to assess identity of adolescents
- Kohlberg’s moral development stages is the basis for this assessment.
- In proposed study, methods proposed to assess moral identity development: i)
quantitative questionnaires with items about moral / identity development, and ii)
structured interviews on morality
- Proposed study will seek to distinguish the relationship – adolescent identity
development and moral development in SA context.
- Study will aim to determine effect of identity development has on moral development in
adolescence in SA context.
- Conclusion of proposed study could be significant in terms of having an impact on our
understanding of said topic (EXPAND THIS to how you think this study could benefit
human developmental sciences/ studies)
Keywords: choose some key words from the abstract to write defenitions on: eg.
moral development, Kohlberg’s moral stages, identity development
, DEFINITIONS

(in your own words entirely): steady development of understanding of wrong and

RE-WRITE YOUR TITLE HERE
(in your own words entirely WRITE IN PARAGRAPH FORM):
- Moral development is deciding to do the correct and ethically sound thing, including the
development of moral
- Proposed study is titled " RE-WRITE YOUR TITLE HERE",to study the
influence identity development has on moral development in adolescence
in SA context.
- State why is this study necessary – like in final part of your abstract.
- Adolescence is where we come to experience mentally, physically and emotionally
different changes and lead to situations where moral decisions have to be made or
decided against.
Background
(in your own words entirely WRITE IN PARAGRAPH FORM):
- exploring adolescent moral development, there is the hope that we can
determine strength of moral decision-making skills.
- The proposed study may show the strength of this by discovering influences
on morality, for instance identity development among others.
