When I wrote my master dissertation in psychology 2001-2002 about Kohlberg and his critics (in Swedish) I found (since I read every abstract containing "Kohlberg*" in databases such as PsychInfo, ERIC etc) some studies using Kohlberg's stages to understand economic decision-making. Below are four articles I used in my work and may be good examples (but I'm not sure if these really contain what you are looking for); I have the abstracts if you want them as well (write to mikael.krall@telia.com).
