Week 5 - Piaget

Piaget proposes that: [blank_start]Accommodation[blank_end] is prompted by disequilibrium. [blank_start]Assimilation[blank_end] occurs during equilibrium.

Match the stage to their descriptions. [blank_start]Secondary circular reactions (4-8 months[blank_end]): Repetition of interesting actions external to own body. [blank_start]Primary circular reactions (1-4 months[blank_end]): Repetition of actions focused on own body. [blank_start]Reflexive schemes (0-1 month[blank_end]): Develops behaviours that originate from reflexes. [blank_start]Tertiary circular reactions[blank_end] (12-18 months): Experimentation. [blank_start]Secondary circular coordination[blank_end] (8-12 months): Emergence of goal directed behaviour. [blank_start]Symbolic representation (18-24 months[blank_end]): Mental exploration, less trial and error.

Match the following stages of of development of object permanence. Out of sight out of mind - [blank_start]Stage 1 (0-4 months)[blank_end] Search where object was last seen - [blank_start]Stage 4 (12-18 months)[blank_end] A not B error - [blank_start]Stage 3 (8-12 months)[blank_end] Full object permanence - [blank_start]Stage 6[blank_end]

What are some of the characteristics of Piagets' preoperational stage?

What are some of the proposed reasons while children in the preoperational stage are thought to lack conservation?

Believing that inanimate objects have human attributes: [blank_start]Animism[blank_end] Believing all natural phenomenon are man made: [blank_start]Artificialism[blank_end] Giving mental events tangible qualities: [blank_start]Realism[blank_end]
