A1 & 5 only
B3 & 4 only
C2 & 4 only ✓ Correct
D2, 3 & 5 only
Correct answer: (C) 2 & 4 only — The conventional level includes the being-nice orientation and the law-and-order orientation, so the answer is 2 and 4.
Explanation
★The conventional level includes the being-nice orientation and the law-and-order orientation, so the answer is 2 and 4.
★Kohlberg's conventional level is his middle level of moral development.
★Its stage three is the being-nice or relationship orientation, which is item 2.
★Its stage four is the law-and-order orientation, which is item 4.
★So the conventional level covers items 2 and 4.
★Obedience is pre-conventional, and social contract and universal principles are post-conventional.
★So the answer is items 2 and 4.
