According to Kohlberg, most active members of society reason at which stage?

1. Stage 4 is the authority and social order (law and order) stage. 2. Kohlberg found most active members of society remain at Stage 4. 3. At this stage morality is still largely set by an outside force: laws and duties. 4. He suggested many people never reach postconventional reasoning. 5. Stage 6 was so rare he struggled to find people who used it consistently. 6. So the typical adult stage is Stage 4. **Why the other options fail:** - Stage 5 and Stage 6 are postconventional, reached by few. - Stage 2 is a preconventional stage common in children. _Source: Wikipedia, "Lawrence Kohlberg's stages of moral development", section "Conventional" (revision 1376737595)_
