A treatment approach in the very early 1800s, aimed at treating the mentally ill as persons rather than as "crazies" or children. It substituted warm-hearted people to work with the inmates as human being, for "wardens." Unfortunately, it took a lot of good people to replace the few care-takers, and the movement faded.

Moral development is a specific aspect of cognitive development that involves understanding and internalizing moral principles and values. While moral development is influenced by general cognitive development, it is a distinct process that focuses on moral reasoning and decision-making. Moral development typically progresses alongside general cognitive development but is also influenced by social and cultural factors.
The moral development theory, as proposed by psychologist Lawrence Kohlberg, suggests that moral development is influenced by both nature and nurture. While genetic factors and innate predispositions play a role in shaping moral reasoning, environmental factors such as upbringing, peer interactions, and cultural norms also contribute to the development of an individual's moral beliefs and values.
