What are the very first schemes you are born with?
|
1. physical activity or reflexive schemes, new borns use reflexes, they become more coordinated
|
|
|
What is Assimilation?
|
it is when new experiences are readily incorporated into existing schemes. A baby grasps.. the baby soon learns that they can grasp all sorts of things... toys balls, blocks, etc.
|
|
|
What is Accommodation?
|
It occurs when schemes are modified based on experience... sone thingts can be lifted with two hands, and some things cannot be lifted at all. the baby then creates a new scheme
|
|
|
What is Disequilibrium?
|
Children discover their current schemes are not adequate because they are spending much more time acommadating rather than assimilationg. Children then reorganize their schemes to return to a state of equilibrium.
|
|
|
What is Equilibration?
|
The old is replaced with the new. they are creating a whole new scheme
|
|
|
What is Primary Circular Reaction?
|
(1 to 4 months) it is the chief mechanism for change. it occurs when an infanct accidentally produces a pleasing event and then tries to recreate that event. again and again and again.
|
|
|
What is Secondary Circular Reactions?
|
Substage 3. (4 to 8 months) Objects are more the focus of primary circular reactions instead of the infants body. they are learning about sights and sounds associated with objects. improved control over their own behavior permits infants to imitate other's behaviors more effectively.
|
|
|
What is Object Permanece?
|
it meants that an object exists independently whether we see them or not, first starts to appear here. Babies can now imitate behaviors slightly different from those they usually perform.
|
|
|
What is Substage 4?
|
(8 to 12 months) It is the coordination of secondary circular reactions. if a father blocks a toy with his hand the baby will move the hand in order to get the toy. using one action as a means to achieve another end is the first indication of purposeful, goal directed behavior during infancy. etc. Object Permanence.
|
|
|
What is Tertiary Circular Reactions?
|
Substage 5. (12 to 18 months) the infant will become an active experimentalist. they repeat old schemes with novel objects as if trying to understand why different objects yield different outocmes. they drop things or shake things just to see the sounds it makes. these actions represent a signigicant extension of intentional behavior. now babies repeat actions with different objects solely for the purpose of seeing what happens.
|
|
|
What is Mental Representaion?
|
Substage 6 (18 to 24 months) infants have begun to talk and gesture, which is evidence of the emergin ability to use symbols. once infants begin to use symbols they can begin to anticipate the consequences of actions mentally instead of having to perform them.
|
|
|
What is Apperance as Reality?
|
An objects appearance IS what the object is really like.
|
|
|
What is Animism?
|
They credit inanimate objects with life and lifelike properties.
