Abstract | Using multilevel modeling, moral reasoning was investigated with respect to individual characteristics and school-related (i.e. university/college) factors. Researchers observed significant effects for the individual characteristic of political orientation. Additionally, all investigated school-related factors were significant. Only main effects were observed for some school-related factors (i.e. average SAT score, institution type, and frequency of ethical and moral-related words in mission statements, values statements, and course catalogs). For other school-related factors (i.e. region, student-faculty ratio, racial composition), main effects were also observed, but the effects of these variables were particularly illuminating given their interactions with the individual characteristic of political orientation. Implications for educational communities are discussed. (As Provided). |
