From here he began to explore the development of the reasoning process…

Infancy and toddlerhood is the focus age-range for my developmental observation. This developmental period is heavily connected to my future career in Child and family Studies. I was very interested to observe development within the family context, so I examined my infant sister, Reagan, and her interactions with our mother.

This theory is separated into four periods: sensorimotor intelligence, preoperational thought, concrete operations, and formal operations; these periods span from birth to adulthood. The first period, sensorimotor intelligence, spans from birth to 2 years of age and was then split into six stages: the use of reflexes, primary…

Jean Piaget invented the Cognitive Theory, which entailed the idea that human development/behavior is the product of certain consistent and reliable…
