Social conventional reasoning

Explanation:

Social conventional reasoning is common among adults and adolescents. This kind of reasoning is based on judging the level of morality of a action by comparing with the expectations or views of the society. an individual's obedience to rules are not based on moral reasoning but based on what the society expects.

Fernando's reasoning is conventional because he focuses on the rules of the society to control his behavior.
