Abstract

This study was conducted to find out the differences between four groups of Ahvaz primary, Guidance school, and teachers’ training school students regarding their moral judgment. The sample consisted of 480 students (each group consisting of 120 Ss). The Defining Issues Test (DIT) was used to measure moral judgment. It was hypothesized that there was significant differences in moral judgment of the four subject groups. Analysis of variance was used as the statistical method to test the hypotheses. The results supported the research hypotheses.
