Is level of moral reasoning related to identity status? For example, does an identity-achieved person reason at ahigher moral level than an identity-diffuse person? Apply your knowledge about the scientific method by designing a study that will answer a question about the relationship between level of moral reasoning and level of identity development:

1. What specific problem or question do you want to study?
2. What predictions would you make and test in your study?
3. What measures would you use (i.e., controlled observation in a laboratory, naturalistic observation, interviews and questionnaires, case studies, standardized tests, cross-cultural studies, physiological research, research with animals, or multimeasure, multisource, and multicontext approach) and how would you define each measure clearly and unambiguously?
4. What strategy would you follow-correlational or experimental, and what would be the time span of your inquiry-cross-sectional or longitudinal?
5. What ethical considerations must be addressed before you conduct your study?
