This study aims to analyze the mechanism of the reasoned persuasion link in the social intuitionist model, deriving conditions for utilizing it in moral education. The reinterpretation of the model through the argumentative theory of reasoning demonstrates that the link does not solely rely on emotional reactions but can be activated during the process of argument exchange, where the production and evaluation of arguments are combined. The findings suggests that productively activating the link in the classroom requires creating an environment that includes the utilization of myside bias, mutual argument evaluation procedures, and heterogeneous groups, along with the teacher’s role in facilitating argument production and mediating evaluation and conflict.
