Young children are egocentric in their thinking, they usually talk at, not to others.
- I am currently in the preschool lab. I have noticed that the children very much have an
egocentric viewpoint
Semi-clinical interview
- open ended questioning
6-7 months when objects disappear they are gone for good
Schema
- permanent object
- conservation – form a schema at a sensory-motor level or a concept at a verbal level,
we are constructing a concept.
sensorimotor – concerned of creating a world of permanent objects, that’s why they put
everything in their mouth, dump everything, bang everything, and touch everything
pre operational 2-7 – symbolic level
- This fits well with Erikson’s play stage (initiative vs. guilt)
concrete operational 6 – 11 reconstruct world based on rules, numbers, classes, and
relations
formal operation 11 – construct world of ideals, possibilities, how things might be but are
not, ideal worlds become more influential than the rule one, parents don’t meet
expectations of the ideal stage
I didn’t realize that Jean Piaget’s theory of development was so recent. He died in 1980 – less
than 40 years ago!
