Q

Adaption

A

Piaget

  • process of fitting schemas to environmental information
  • adaption can occur as either assimilation or accomodation

Q

Sensorimotor stage

A

Piaget

  • 0-2 years
  • SPIRO
  • Symbolic thought: language starts developing and thought starts to dominate actions
  • Play is representational: mimics one object for another
  • Imitation: remembers an act and replays it later
  • Recognition of self: primitive recognition begins
  • Object permanence: understands that if something disappears from vision then it has not ceased to exist- completed at 18 months
17
Q

Preoperational stage

A

Piaget

  • 2-7 years
  • FAT PILES
  • Functional attribution
  • Artificialism
  • Transductive reasoning
  • Phenomalistic causality
  • Imminent justice
  • Lack of seriation, conservation and reversibility
  • Egocentrism
  • Semiotic function
  • Syncretic thought
18
Q

Concrete operational

A

Piaget
7-11 years
-conservation of liquid starts at 6 and is followed by conservation or length, count, weight and volume
-perspective taking starts to develop

19
Q

Symbolic thought

A

Language starts developing and thought starts to dominate actions
Piaget
-Sensorimotor stage

20
Q

Representational Play

A

Piaget
Sensorimotor stage
-mimics one object for another
e.g cup for a hat

21
Q

Deferred Imitation

A

Piaget
Sensorimotor stage
remembers an act and replays it later

22
Q

Recognition of self

A

Piaget
Sensorimotor stage
Primitive self recognition begins
Complete by the age of 2

23
Q

Object permanence

A

Piaget
Sensorimotor stage
-understanding that an object that disappears from field of perception has not ceased to exist
-limited at 9-12 months- objects are searched for where they were last seen, not where they are hidden
-complete by 18 months

24
Q

Functional attribution

A

Piaget
Preoperational stage
Objects are referred to by their function not their appearance

25
Q

Artificialism

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
‘The sky is blue because someone painted it’
Inanimate objects are treated as living objects

26
Q

Transductive reasoning

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
Cats have 4 legs and Dogs have 4 legs so they are the same ( Von Domarus law)

27
Q

Telegraphic speech

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
no functional propositions noted but verbs and nouns are used

28
Q

Phenomenalistic causality

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
causality is inferred if two events occur with some temporal association
e.g lightening comes with rain so lightening brings rain

29
Q

Imminent justice

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
Moral development

30
Q

Lack of seriation

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
-ability to sort or categorise based on dimensional variation of items

31
Q

Centration

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
-only a single dimension can be focussed on one time

32
Q

Conservation

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
-ability to perceive that the quantity of something is unchanged if the material is put into a different shape or structure

33
Q

Compensation

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
-refers to the fact that magnification in one dimension and reduction in another can nullify each others effect

34
Q

Reversibility

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
-refers to ability of mentally calculating and understanding that what is done can be undone without loss of material

35
Q

Egocentrism

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
-restricted ability of viewing the world from a single point of view at this stage
-NOT SELF CENTERED!

36
Q

Semiotic function

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
-uses ‘signifers’ which are symbols and signs that represent on stand in for something else and so have another meaning
-e.g in play

37
Q

Syncretic thought

A

Piaget
Pre-operational stage
Links neighbouring objects and events on the basis of common instances e.g like with like

38
Q

Formal operational stage

A

Piaget
11 years+
-1st order operations: manipulation of ideas and propositions
-2nd order operations: reasoning based on verbal argument construction
Hypothetical deductive reasoning develops in a proportion of children after the age of 12
