Kohlberg's Stage 4: Law and Order Orientation

Moral development is a critical aspect of understanding human behavior, particularly in how individuals distinguish right from wrong. Psychologist Lawrence Kohlberg identified three main levels of moral reasoning, each consisting of two stages. A practical application of these stages can often be seen in decision-making scenarios. Consider a situation where an individual decides whether to report a coworker for unethical behavior. Based on Kohlberg's theory, their reasoning can indicate the level of moral development they have achieved.

Which of the following actions reflects a reasoning consistent with Kohlberg's Stage 4, the 'Law and Order' orientation?
