Violence associated with gangs known as maras in Honduras is an impetus for why people flee and migrate out of the country. Based on fieldwork with youth between the ages of 10 and 18 in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, I discuss (a) that prevailing views of violence in developmental research need further elaboration in understanding the illicit and legal forms and functions of violence in a society that children and adolescents grow up in and (b) that a domain model of social-moral thinking offers more insight about violence and morality than a current model informing violence prevention in Honduras. Lastly, I conclude with a few implications for violence prevention efforts and future directions for developmental research.

社会期望，暴力和社会道德知识：发展研究的考虑因素

洪都拉斯与黑社会相关的暴力团伙是人们逃亡并迁移出该国的动力。根据在洪都拉斯圣佩德罗苏拉与10至18岁的年轻人进行的实地考察，我讨论（a）在发展研究中普遍存在的暴力观点需要进一步阐述，以了解暴力的非法和法律形式及功能，儿童和青少年在以下地区长大：（b）与当前洪都拉斯预防暴力的模式相比，社会道德思维的领域模型提供了更多关于暴力和道德的见解。最后，我最后对预防暴力的努力和发展研究的未来方向有一些启示。
