This study was designed to test the hypothesis that maturity of moral judgment is related to moral behavior and to certain personality characteristics. The Ss, 33 fifth grade boys (approximately 10 1/2-years of age), were given the Kohlberg test of moral judgment, and scores on this test were related to a measure of general intelligence, moral conduct as judged by peers (sociometric nominations), honesty in a structured test, and certain personality variables. Maturity of moral judgment was found to be significantly correlated with general cognitive ability (intelligence test performance) and, even with intelligence partialed out, with resistance to temptation, reputation for being concerned with the welfare of others, self-confidence, and security in social relationships with peers.
本研究旨在检验道德判断成熟度与道德行为及某些人格特征相关这一假设。33名五年级男生（约10.5岁）作为研究对象，接受了科尔伯格道德判断测试，该测试得分与一般智力水平、同伴评判的道德行为（社会测量提名）、结构化测试中的诚实度以及某些人格变量相关。研究发现，道德判断成熟度与一般认知能力（智力测试表现）显著相关，并且即使排除智力因素，仍与抵制诱惑的能力、关心他人福利的声誉、自信心以及与同伴的社会关系中的安全感相关。
