The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between adolescent’s level of self-esteem and level of moral development. Eleventh and twelfth grade high school students completed the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and Lind’s Moral Judgment Test. It was hypothesized that adolescents demonstrating higher levels of self-esteem will score higher in moral development. The data correlation will also consider demographic factors among adolescents surveyed. Results are pending.
