We'll then delve into the internal world of identity and self-concept, navigating theories like Erikson's and Marcia's, while acknowledging the complex influences of race, ethnicity, and social norms. Finally, we'll look at the evolution of moral reasoning, from understanding intentions to building prosocial behavior, drawing insights from diverse perspectives like Kohlberg, Gilligan, and Haidt.
