(1990): Activities handbook for the teaching of psychology. Three tasks of adolescence: Cognitive, moral, social.. Washington, DC, US: American Psychological Association
Abstract: In this activity students should read the appropriate background materials before you engage them in this three-part discussion that is designed to bring the abstract theories they have read about to life. No materials are needed and any size class can participate. The cognitive theory of Piaget (1972), the moral theories of Kohlberg (1986) and Gilligan (1982), and the idea of social age-graded norms are key constructs for the study of adolescence. According to Erikson (1954), the formation of identity is aided by development in these areas. Piaget postulated that formal operational thought requires an ability for hypothetical thinking and the generation of logical rules for abstract problems. Both Kohlberg and Gilligan proposed that adolescents become capable of moral reasoning and look beyond simple rewards and punishments. Kohlberg's theory is based on considerations of justice and equity, and seems applicable to most men. Gilligan's theory describes moral decisions as being b ased on relationships and responsibilities, and seems to be more relevant to women. Adolescents are frequently caught between the norms for children and the norms for adults. These developments make the adolescent's search for his or her own identity a difficult, although not impossible, struggle. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
