Finally, Neo-Kohlbergians understand the character component to be the ability to carry out one’s judgment about the right thing to do, the ability to act well. Now part of acting well is avoiding being dragged by temptation to do what one knows one shouldn’t, but another is avoiding rationalization that temptation urges. So Neo-Kholbergians consider the ability to reason well despite temptation as part of character, rather than part of judgment.
