Child development psychology

For this assignment, please choose one of the following research questions on childrens moral development:

Do 5-year-old children share more with members of their own group compared to members of another group*?
Do 5-year-old children judge impersonal moral dilemmas to be more inappropriate than personal moral dilemmas?
*Here, group could be based on characteristics such as gender, age, race, language, food preferences or experimentally created distinctions, such as shirt color.

Then, design an experiment that can test this research question in the lab setting (i.e., where children are brought into a quiet room) and please answer the following questions:

1.  Please write down the research question that you choose (1 point).

2. Describe your study. Be specific and make sure that your description includes the following aspects:

Describe the sample (sample size, important details of participants such as SES, race/ethnicity, etc.) (1 point)
Describe the type of design (experimental, correlational or descriptive) you will use and why (1 point)
Describe the procedure of your study (e.g., What kind of materials that the experimenter will use – If you choose the first question, what kind of things will children share? If you choose the second question, what type of moral dilemmas will the experimenter present children? What specific steps will children go through? What will the experimenter do/say in the study?) (2 points)
Describe the type of measures you will use (i.e., what outcome will you measure?) (2 points)
3. Based on one of the moral development theories (e.g., Piaget, Kohlberg, Social Domain Theory) we discussed this week, how do you predict the 5-year-old children will respond and why? Be sure to state which theory you’re using in your answer. (3 points)
