The above results indicated that young children's moral cognitive development was influenced by Chinese traditional culture which emphasized moral education and careness to others, as the result their moral emotion emerged earlier; that influenced by the poor perspective-taking abilities,young children's moral emotion was still apart from their moral cognition in the emotional attribution of the story victimizer.
