Since 1980s Kohlberg¡¯s theory of moral cognitive
development has great influences on Chinese moral education. The Chinese
scholars introduced Kohlberg¡¯s theory into Chinaand
made some theoretical comments first and then made some empirical research in
Chinese schools and universities. More and more empirical and cross-cultural
research results jointly made by both Chinese and Western scholars have been
published since the beginning of the new century. Post-Kohlberg theories began
to be introduced into China, such as DIT, MJT and Social cognitive domain
theory and so on. All of these theories have important enlightenment on Chinese
moral education and facilitate the reform and innovation of the Chinese moral
education to some extent. There are still some arguments with Kohlberg and
post-Kohlberg theories in the empirical research made by Chinese scholars and
so more research should be needed in the future.
