Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Donald is likely to respond to the sibling story with more care-based reasoning because siblings are expected to have a closer relationship and thus, there is a higher expectation for care and compassion between them. On the other hand, the same transgression occurring between acquaintances may lead to more emphasis on justice-oriented reasoning since there may not be the same level of care expectation between them.
