Isi artikel

The moral reasoning of 14 - and 17 - year - old finnish adolescents (n = 1,230) who grew up in findland and experienced western individualitstic educational practices was compared with that of adolescents (n = 428) of the same age who grew up in estonia during the period of soviet socialism with collectivist educational practices. The same factors of moral reasoning were found in both samples : legitimization (attributing the responsibility to external factors), relativism, absoluteness, and universality of high moral standards. The results showed that the moral reasoning of finnish participants had a higher internal consistency, whereas two levels, were likely to exist in estonia : a set of universal standards for what people ought to do and a different set for personal applciations. The finding is discussed in terms of primary principles of collectivist education (i. e. collective consciousness, a relative in significance of family and parenting, and a lack of primary developmental context) as well as in the light of historical processes underlying the present time.
