Chapter 13 Social Cognition and Moral Development

Chapter 13: Social Cognition and Moral Development Social cognition: ability to understand psychological differences in others Adopt other’s perspectives Theory of Mind: False Belief Task Where will Sally look for marble when she returns? (See next slide) Used to predict and explain human behavior before 4 yrs of age “he wanted to. . .” “he intended to. .”

Figure 13.1 The experimental arrangement in the false belief task involving Sally and Anne. As Sally does not know that Anne transferred Sally’s marble from Sally’s basket to Anne’s box, she falsely believes it is in her basket, and the child who has a theory of mind should say that she will look for it there. Figure 13.1

Forerunners of Theory of Mind Joint attention Pretend play Imitation Emotional Understanding

Nature and Nurture Nature: Theory of mind proved adaptive Functioning in a social group Gain resources and survive Bargaining, conflict resolution, cooperation Nurture: Acquiring language and interaction Having siblings, sensitive parents Using mental states to explain behavior “How do you think she felt?”

Factors that Influence Theory of Mind Maternal Factors: Maternal-mindedness Mothers talk about own feelings Mothers encourage perspective taking Cultural differences

Factors that Influence Theory of Mind Child Factors: Secure attachment Ability to inhibit responses Sensory impairments

Maltreatment and ToM Maltreated children were less likely to exhibit false belief understanding than both nonmaltreated children from lower SES and nonmaltreated from middle class. Timing: abuse that occurred during toddler period was related to problems in false belief understanding Type of Abuse: physical abuse because of harsh and unpredictable nature of abuse and uncertainty on part of child regarding expectations of parental behavior

Person Perception Psychological traits observed Used to explain behavior By about age 7 or 8 Understanding personality Through adolescence Used to evaluate others

Role-Taking Skills The ability to adopt another’s perspective Moving away from egocentrism Essential in thinking about moral issues Beginning of empathy – about age 2 3-6 yr olds – egocentric 8-10 yr olds - own and other’s thoughts 12+ - multiple perspectives Socially isolated older adults decline related to processing speed

Perspectives on Moral Development Three components of morality 1) Cognitive: Distinguish right from wrong 2) Behavioral: Act accordingly (Prosocial) 3) Affective: Feel pride and guilt or shame Empathy: a vicarious experience Most are motivated to avoid negative emotions

Psychoanalytic Theory Superego: conscience Oedipus Complex Internalization of parental morals Emotion important in morality Responsive parenting important Gender differences unsupported

Cognitive-Developmental Theory Piaget’s views Premoral Period: not moral beings Heteronomous Morality: ages 6-10 Believe in rules from parents Consequences/amount of damage Autonomous: at ages10-11 Rules are agreements – not absolutes Intention more important than consequences

Kohlberg: Reasoning about Moral Dilemmas Preconventional: egocentric Punishment and obedience Instrumental hedonism Conventional: consideration of others Good boy/girl morality Authority/social order maintaining Postconventional: consideration of all Morality of contract Individual principles of conscience

Social Learning Theory Moral Behavior (Bandura) Cognitive self-regulation Anticipation, apply consequences to self Moral disengagement No self condemnation for immoral acts Situational context important

Early Moral Training Children internalize moral standards By 18-24 mo. learn through experiences to: 1) Associate negative emotions with violating rules Positive relationship w/parent important 2) Exert self-control when tempted Prosocial behavior by age 2 (and earlier) Punishment must always be accompanied by an explanation

Intentions and Rules: Research Piaget: consequences vs. intentions Nelson: 3 yr. olds can judge intention Theory of mind: “I didn’t mean it!” Piaget: questioning rules Turiel: moral rules by age 2 1/2 Adult rules often questioned

Raising Moral Children Social Learning Theory R+ moral behavior Punish immoral behavior Model moral behavior Hoffman: Three Approaches to Discipline Love withdrawal: negative effects Power assertion: moral immaturity Induction: related to moral maturity

Temperament and Moral Development Fearful, inhibited children Become more fearful when reprimanded Use gentle discipline Fearless, uninhibited children Relationship with parent important “Goodness of fit” What works for one child may not for another

The Adolescent Changes in moral reasoning Shift to conventional reasoning Identity includes moral and values Two kinds of antisocial youth 1) Temporary in adolescence 2) Chronic/seriously aggressive Less empathy for distress of others Little remorse for criminal behavior

Dodge’s Social Information-Processing Model Individual’s reaction to frustration, anger Not simply social cues Deficient information processing For most, accuracy improves with age Aggressive kids show a bias toward attributing hostile intent/motive Also choose aggressive response Rejection, abuse in upbringing

Patterson’s Coercive Family Environments Ineffective parenting in childhood Family members in power struggle Try to control each other coercively Threatening, hitting, even abuse Unpleasant aggressive child Performs poorly in school Disliked by other children Chooses aggressive peer group

Nature-Nurture Inherit predisposition for aggression Behavior evokes coercive parenting Parenting strengthens aggression Less opportunity to learn emotional control Exposure to violence in society Lower SES: violence to solve problems Both bullies and victims of bullies more likely to behave violently

The Adult Postconventional reasoning is possible Stable through about age 75 Important moral lessons learned in life Spirituality: search for meaning in life Evident among reflective adults Religion: Little change even in old age

Advanced Moral Reasoning Necessary cognitive skills Perspective-taking Formal operations Social learning experiences Interactions with parents Discussions with peers Higher education Democracy
