Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Concern with living up to one's values is part of the most advanced level of prosocial reasoning, according to psychologist Lawrence Kohlberg's stages of moral development. This level is called postconventional or principled reasoning, and individuals at this level are guided by internalized ethical principles rather than external factors like others' approval or their own interests. Guilt or positive emotions related to the consequences of one's behavior may be present at earlier stages of moral development.
