Jean Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development is constructed of 4 different stages of development in children. It begins with the sensorimotor stage, and then continues throughout age with preoperational, concrete operational, and lastly formal operational. Each stage of Piaget’s theory has an achievement that is accomplished throughout the time frame, as well as several major limitations for each stage. Piaget’s process begins at birth and continue throughout life, beginning and ending at…

Jean Piaget, a clinical psychologist from Switzerland, is well known for his theories on child development and for his research in genetic epistemology. The scope of his work focused on establishing how intelligence and knowledge progresses over the span of one’s life. Piaget purported that there are four ubiquitous, incremental stages of cognitive development: sensorimotor stage, preoperational stage, concrete operational stage, and formal operational stage. These stages map the constructional…

Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist and philosopher proposed the theory of cognitive development. It consists of four stages: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational and formal operational. Piaget presumed that children pass through these stages in a fixed order from birth to adolescence. Each stage consists of different schemes, which are organized patterns of functioning that change with mental development (Feldmanm, 2014). According to Piaget’s theory of cognitive development a…

In modern psychology, many different viewpoints are used in order to study the mind. Among these views is the cultural-historical view, which uses cultural and social interactions to explain cognitive development. This view, founded by Lev Vygotsky, provided a revolutionary new perspective on learning and cognitive development which is still used today in order to teach children. The unique circumstances which Lev Vygotsky faced in his allowed allowed him to produce many new and effective…

Jean Piaget’s (1896-1980) theory of cognitive development began in the 1920’s. His partner, Theodore Simon, designed a standardized test that was meant to measure a child’s intelligence and how his/her age could be responsible for the nature of the mistakes made. Piaget found this test to be too constricting however, and so created a revised version. With this less rigid version, Piaget studied a child’s intelligence and their reasoning for the errors they made. He found that, if they did not…

I was influenced most developmentally by my parent’s divorce and my support systems during my adolescence.

Being the oldest of three children with divorced parents and…

Jean Piagett created the Piaget’s Development Theory. This theory was created in order to try and explain how biology and experience sculpt cognitive development. He decided to divide the theory into four different stages. In chronological order the stages are sensorimotor stage, preoperational stage, concreate operational stage, and formal operational stage. During each stage the child is able to master some type of task. The first stage in this theory is the sensorimotor stage. This lasts…
