Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fact that U.S. and Filipino children have different beliefs about the basis for distribution of resources suggests that cultural influences play a role in shaping moral reasoning, and that notions of what is fair or just may differ across cultures. This is consistent with the idea that morality is shaped by cultural context and influence, rather than being genetically determined or exclusively reliant on universal principles.
