Explanation:

Lawrence Kohlberg is recognized for his theory on moral development that comprises 6 stages divided into three levels of morality. In this theory, stage 3 that belongs to the conventional stage is defined as the good-child orientation because, in this stage, individuals act according to social expectations.

In this way, individuals want to gain acceptance and avoid disapproval, which determines their actions. This means morality is based on social acceptance rather than on the individual's understanding of norms or own principles. Thus, the stage described is the good-child orientation stage of the conventional level.
