The study of Montemayor and Eisen studied the development of individuals pre-adolescence and post-adolescence. It was hypothesized that young children will only describe themselves with concrete and physical characteristics. However, they believed that older individuals will use more physiological and interpersonal traits. There were significant increases among children and adolescents in seven categories: occupational role, interpersonal descriptions, existential living, ideological living and…

cognitive growth. As indicated by, psychologist Jean Piaget’s Four Stages of Cognitive Development, towards the end of the sensorimotor stage, infants will experience what is known as, Object Permanence. Object Permanence is recognizing that an object exist even if it is openly out of sight. In the video clip, Failing Object Permanence (https://youtu.be/rVqJacvywAQ), the baby is unable to keep track of the toy. Every time the adult hides the toy, the baby does not know which cloth the toy is…

A psychological theory that is reflected in the case study is Piaget’s ‘Theory of Cognitive Development’. Piaget’s theory involves four stages of a child’s cognitive development and how they can understand different things during the different stages of development (refer to the table below) (Wadsworth, 1996). Piaget’s theory importantly shows that children between 7-11 (stage three) can usually only fully understand concrete situations (Wadsworth, 1996). So, in distressing and unknown…

suddenly reappearing, saying “peekaboo.” Throughout this game, the infant brain has different neurons that need to function together in order for them to react the way they do. Although the baby has not developed enough knowledge to understand where the object went, it is still very important that each neurons acts properly under command. Neurons used to complete a babies understanding of peek-a-boo is neuron, axon, axon terminal, synapse, and dendrites. A neuron is the main functional unit of…

schools today. Jean Piaget divided a child’s cognitive development in to four main stages. The sensorimotor stage (0-2 years) is outlined by Piaget as a child learning about the environment around them through their senses with no realisation of object permanence. Whilst in this stage children have a very basic mathematical understanding and can begin to recognise counting patterns when introduced to these ideas, e.g. the child’s parents counting and organising items belonging to the child…

needed aid: out-of-reach objects, access thwarted by a physical object, achieved a wrong but correctable result, and using a wrong but correctable method. After, there were three phrases in which the experimenter waited for a response from the infant: he focused on the object, his gaze switched between child and object, and finally he began to verbalize his problems. Each situational category had a corresponding control task, where the experimenter only looked at the object…

In the 1920's Jean Piaget realized that children have a different way of thinking than adults do. After realizing this he decided to invest his time into trying to figure out why. He eventually came up with the 4 stages of child development that every single child goes through. The stages go from when an infant is born until it is around 11 years old. Every child is in the sensorimotor stage until they get to be around 2 years old. During this stage infants become area of their senses like touch…

with Vygotsky’s theory who believed that more challenging tasks promote cognitive development. However, this limitation could also have arisen from his tasks confusing competence and performance. For example, a child may have had the competence of object permanence but the inability to perform the search. Another limitation was that Piaget overestimated the role of logical thinking and understated the importance of context and interaction (Lourenço, 2016). Certainly, culture and schooling…

dress me up for school, I did sob because I could not take my doll with me to school. While in elementary school, I imagined her at home, missing me and often feeling lonely. This represents a lack of ability to differentiate inanimate objects from animate objects. I did become flustered and confused whenever my parents said, "she's just a doll". Of course I knew it was a doll but I put life into it through imagination. Many children like myself see no sense in knowing false perceptions because…

Piaget had taken an interest in zoology at an early part of his life. In his younger years, he had written an article on albino sparrows that ended up being published https://www.britannica.com/biography/Jean-Piaget. Jean Piaget studied zoology at the University of Neuchatel. It wasn’t until he after Piaget received his doctorate that he became interested in psychology. He later on traveled to Zurich, where he studied under Carl Jung and Eugene Bleuler. Jean Piaget continued his studies…
