A Study on the Relationship Between Moral Judgment,Empathy and Prosocial Behavior in Children

After DIT measurement,subjects who came from eighth graders of a common middle school were classified into high level moral judgment group and low level moral judgment group.Forty students were selected from every group respectively.Half of them were male,the other half were female.Two weeks later,empathy evoking operation was administered only in experimental class.Several minutes later,all the subjects were provided with an opportunity to help an old lonely woman,in order to measure children's prosocial behavior.The results showed that:there is an interaction between children's moral judgment and empathy.That is,the behavior of children of high level moral judgment is affected more evidently by empathy than that of children of low level moral judgment,and the behavior of children of high level empathy is affected more evidently by moral judgment than that of children of low level empathy;role taking is a mediator between moral judgment and empathy;the girls used more empathy and prosocial behavior than the boys.
