redie-article-592017-04-19T01:08:25Z Influence of Age and Schooling on the Development of Moral Judgment Influencia de la edad y de la escolaridad en el desarrollo del juicio moral Barba Casillas, Bonifacio Development of moral judgment professionals principled moral reasoning teachers of basic education Kohlberg. Desarrollo del juicio moral profesionales razonamiento moral de principios docentes de educación básica Kohlberg. This article presents an evaluation of the moral development of 111 professionals, 84 of which work in basic education. J. Rest’s Defining Issues Test was applied, and mean differences were assessed with the t test (alpha = 0.05). A regression analysis was done. Using the arithmetic means of the moral stages and of the postconventional moral index (P index) the moral profile of all the subjects were described in relation to four variables. The relationship of the P index with schooling, age and teaching level was analyzed, and the adults were compared with middle school and high school students. The professionals have a profile of moral development with a prominence of stage 4 of moral judgment, a feature shared with the students. The former have equilibrium in the use of Rest’s moral judgment schematics as well as a greater postconventional moral growth than do the latter. Among the professionals there are significant differences in the P index related with schooling, age and work level. The association between age and postgraduate study is the weightiest factor in postconventional moral growth. Se presenta la evaluación del desarrollo moral de 111 profesionales de los cuales 84 laboran en educación básica. Se aplicó el Defining Issues Test de J. Rest y se valoraron las diferencias de medias con la prueba t (alfa = 0.05) y se hizo un análisis de regresión. Usando las medias aritméticas de los estadios morales y del índice de moral postconvencional (índice P) se describen los perfiles morales para el total de sujetos y en relación con cuatro variables. Se analiza la relación del índice P con escolaridad, edad y nivel de trabajo docente y se comparan los adultos con estudiantes de secundaria y bachillerato. Los profesionales tienen un perfil de desarrollo moral con preeminencia del estadio 4 de juicio moral, rasgo compartido con los estudiantes. Los primeros tienen equilibrio en el uso de los esquemas de juicio moral de Rest así como un mayor crecimiento moral postconvencional que los segundos. Entre los profesionales existen diferencias significativas en el índice P relacionadas con escolaridad, edad y niveles de trabajo. La asociación entre edad y posgrado es el factor de mayor peso en el crecimiento moral postconvencional.
