Jean Piaget’s Influence in the Field of Psychology Trystan J. Self Oklahoma State University Jean Piaget’s Influence In the Field Of Psychology Jean Piaget was born on August 9, 1896, in Switzerland. At an early age, Piaget was interested in sciences. His father was a smart man who was dedicated to his studies and Piaget began to show that trait at an early age. His mother was highly emotional and created tension in the family. At the age of 10, Piaget wrote a paper on an albino sparrow and…

Lawrence Kholberg believed that moral reasoning was not fully established by the ages 10-11 as Jean Piaget had originally proposed. In fact, Kholberg theorized that moral development had a lengthier and much more difficult progress (Robbins et al., 2012, p. 277). Like Piaget, he believed that each stage is connected and builds upon to apply moral reasoning throughout many different circumstances. However, there is no direct link between age and ethical perceptive (Robbins et al., 2012, p. 277).…

people consider when they are determining how much faith to place in another person. Likewise, a leader’s level of morality powerfully impacts how the team perceives their leader. After all, the team 's vision replies on the leader’s ethical code. Lawrence Kohlberg, a social psychologist, suggested that individuals fall into one of the three categories of moral development – pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional. Depending upon which level of moral development a leader…

Throughout life everyone goes through stages. These stages can tell a lot about a person and looking at the stages throughout someone’s life is a way of determining the way someone grew up or what they have gone through in their lives. Three different phycologists have examined these different stages you have went through in life to try and explain the stages. Although all three of their ways of looking at the stages a person goes through in life, all contain a few constants. Jean Piaget…

Piaget is considered one of the pioneers of cognitive development in children. His studies focused on the importance of the education of children theoretically and not specifically the methodology. The central idea of Piaget’s theory is that children develop their own theories of the world around them and these theories are based on interactions with not only the environment but also the people within it. He describes how children use “schemas” or actions to gain information about their…

Lawrence Kohlberg believed that people advanced through their moral reasoning in a series of stages. There are six identifiable stages that are classified into three levels. Pre-Conventional, Conventional, and Post-Conventional. When organized on a chart, it was classified as Level, stage, and social orientation so that you could understand which level, what stage as in age, and behavior of the person. The concept of moral development is based on thinking and logic, not on feelings for others.…

I had absolutely no previous knowledge about cognitive development prior to researching about it this week. I had never heard of Jean Piaget either, but I am glad that I did because his theory of cognitive development is very interesting. I learned that cognitive development is the development of the thinking and organizing parts of the brain and it involves language, reasoning, problem solving, and memory. Piaget was the first psychologist to make a study of cognitive development. Before his…
