Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to compare
moral judgment in students with and without intellectual disability in Shiraz. The
research method was causal-comparative, and the statistical population included
the secondary students with and without intellectual disability ageing 16 years
old. The sample size was 160 students (80 with intellectual disability and 80
without intellectual disability). These students were selected by a cluster sampling
method. The Moral Judgment Scale was used to measure moral judgment. The
collected data were analyzed by t-test, MANOVA and two-way ANOVA. The results
indicated that there was a significant difference between the two groups in the
total scores of moral judgment and its dimensions (p<0.01). Also, the results
showed that there were no significant differences between males and females in this
respect (p>0.05).According to the findings, it is suggested that any plan to
promote and internalize students' moral values must be considered based on
their cognitive development level, because there is a relationship between
moral and cognitive development of students.
