description Objective: This article presents a review of research perspectives that have become referents for the moral formation of citizens. Originality/contribution: the debate is enriched through a different reflection. It analyzes the advances in moral education based on the different research approaches whose development, in this field, began in the early 20th century. Some of them are as follows: personal internalization of behavior, the adaptation of individuals to social norms, autonomous construction of moral reasoning, and social learning as a source of moral education. Method: The study is based on the analysis of the existing literature, alternating between research advances in the moral field and the epistemological development of the concepts of this dimension. Strategies/information collection: The process consists of three stages: identification of research that has contributed to the theory of moral education, categorization by lines of research based on the similarity between approaches, and analysis of each approach. Conclusions: Four research approaches in moral education are identified: internalization of behavior, adaptation of the person to social norms, autonomous construction, and social learning. The first two with a focus on the heteronomous assumption of behavioral patterns, and the other two on the autonomy of individuals in interaction with the social context.

Resumen Objetivo: Este artículo presenta una revisión de las perspectivas de investigación que se han convertido en referentes para la formación moral de la ciudadanía. Originalidad/aporte: Enriquece el debate con una reflexión distinta, mediante la cual se analizan los avances de la educación moral a partir de los diferentes enfoques de investigación que se han desarrollado en esta materia desde principios del siglo XX: la internalización personal de la conducta, la adaptación de la persona a las normas sociales, la construcción autónoma del razonamiento moral y el aprendizaje social como fuente de educación moral. Método: El estudio se fundamentó en un análisis de la literatura existente, alternando entre los avances de la investigación en el campo moral y el desarrollo epistemológico de los conceptos de esta dimensión. Estrategias/recolección de información: El proceso seguido para la recolección de la información tuvo tres etapas: identificación de las investigaciones que han aportado a la teoría de la educación moral, conformación de líneas de investigación a partir de la similitud entre los enfoques asumidos y, finalmente, análisis de cada enfoque. Conclusiones: Se identificaron cuatro enfoques de investigación en educación moral: la internalización de la conducta, la adaptación de la persona a las normas sociales, la construcción autónoma y el aprendizaje social. Los dos primeros se han centrado en la asunción heterónoma de pautas de comportamiento, y los siguientes en la autonomía de las personas en interacción con el contexto social.
