The participants indicated their judgment in 48 scenarios constructed from the combination of these information cues. A cluster analysis has been done. Two different positions on moral judgment were observed. The information cues were combined differently and moral judgment increased according the young players' age. The approach of information integration completes the previous studies on developmental moral judgment in sport.Show less >
