Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ethic of autonomy emphasizes individualism and the importance of making decisions based on one's own desires and values. This worldview prioritizes personal autonomy and supports the idea that individuals should be free to make decisions for themselves, including the decision to seek a divorce if unhappy in their marriage. As emerging adults, it is likely that Jensen would argue that individuals in this developmental stage are more likely to hold an ethic of autonomy worldview and prioritize their own interests over those of the community or culture.
