Moral functioning is a defining feature of human personhood and
human social life. Moral Psychology provides an integrative and
evaluative overview of the theoretical and empirical traditions
that have attempted to make sense of moral cognition, prosocial
behavior, and the development of virtuous character. This is the
first book to integrate a comprehensive review of the psychological
literatures with allied traditions in ethics. Moral rationality and
decisionmaking; the development of the sense of fairness and
justice, and of prosocial dispositions; as well as the notion of
moral self and moral identity and their relation to issues of
character and virtue are fully discussed in the rich contexts
provided by psychological and philosophical paradigms. Lapsley
emphasizes parenting and educational strategies for influencing
moral behavior, reasoning, and character development, and charts a
line of research for the "post-Kohlbergian era" in moral
psychology. This book will be an invaluable text for advanced
courses in moral psychology, as taught in departments of
psychology, education, and philosophy. It will also prove to be a
standard reference work for researchers and ethicists alike.
