MORAL MATURITY

depth and consistency of moral judgement;
recognition that moral judgement may be fallible;

Moral maturity is a requirement for a person
who is to apply a body of knowledge to
the solution of a problem;
the understanding of a situation

MORAL DEVELOPMENT
Moral development is the process through which we develop proper attitudes and behaviors toward other people in society.
Moral development is based on social and cultural norms, rules, and laws.

BUT….WHAT ARE ETHICS?
Simply stated, ethics refers to standards of
behavior that tell us how human beings
ought to act in the many situations in which
they find themselves.
![Page 10: Sister Thea Krause, CSFN, PhD, ACNP-BC MERCY STREET: A ... · mercy street: a case study in moral decision making then and now sister thea krause, csfn, phd, acnp-bc](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040921/5e9a1d4fc9f8886d2439b676/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
WHAT ETHICS ARE NOT
Ethics are not the same as feelings.
Ethics are not about religion.
Ethics are not adhering to the law.
Ethics are not adoption of culturally
accepted norms.
Ethics are not science.

1. Well Founded Standards
2. Study and development
of ethical standards

IDENTIFYING ETHICAL STANDARDS
*If our ethics are not based on feelings, religion,
law, accepted social practice, or science, what
are they based on?
*There are two problems when identifying ethical
standards :
1. On what do we base our ethical standards?
2. How does we apply those standards to specific
situations?
![Page 13: Sister Thea Krause, CSFN, PhD, ACNP-BC MERCY STREET: A ... · mercy street: a case study in moral decision making then and now sister thea krause, csfn, phd, acnp-bc](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040921/5e9a1d4fc9f8886d2439b676/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SOURCES OF ETHICAL STANDARDS
Utilitarian
Rights
Fairness/Justice
Common Good
Virtue
![Page 14: Sister Thea Krause, CSFN, PhD, ACNP-BC MERCY STREET: A ... · mercy street: a case study in moral decision making then and now sister thea krause, csfn, phd, acnp-bc](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040921/5e9a1d4fc9f8886d2439b676/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
HOW DO THE THEORIES DIFFER?
Theory Premise
Utilitarianism A perspective that judges something on the basis of its utility or
usefulness.
Rights Best protects and respects the moral rights of those affected.
Justice Claims that equals should be treated equally. Ethical actions treat all
human beings equally-or if unequally, then fairly based on some
standard that is defensible.
Common Good Interlocking relationships of society are the basis of ethical reasoning
and that respect and compassion for all others-especially the
vulnerable-are requirements of such reasoning.
Virtue Ethical actions ought to be consistent with certain ideal virtues that
provide for the full development of our humanity.

PROBLEM – DIFFERENT APPROACHES
Each of the approaches helps us determine
what standards of behavior can be considered
ethical. There are still problems to be solved,
however.
The first problem is that we may not agree on a
single approach.
The second problem is that the different
approaches may not answer the question "What is
ethical?" in the same way.

“…man's humanity to
man rather than
man's inhumanity to
man… people hunger
for compassionate
interactions so much
that it transcends all
of culture."
