100% VERIFIED!!
Sensorimotor stage (0-2) milestones (list) - ANSWER - repeating chance behavior
(birth-4month)
- simple intentions actions (4-8months)
- coordinated intentional actions & obj. perm/A-not-B error (8-12 months)
- imitate novel behavior & accurate A-not-B (12-18 months)
- mental representations/make believe play/symbolic understanding (18-24months)
Sensorimotor more experience than Piaget thought in... - ANSWER object permanence
as early as 6 months
- deferred imitation
Sensorimotor milestone: birth-4 month - ANSWER Repeating chance behavior
- As infant tries to repeat chance behavior, it strengthens to new scheme)
Sensorimotor milestone: 4-8 month - ANSWER Simple intentional actions (reaching for
obj)
Sensorimotor milestone: 8-12 month - ANSWER - Coordinated intentional actions
- Obj. permanence (around 8 months)
--> Example, A not B task error— able to find obj in first hiding place but once moved still
search in first location
Sensorimotor milestone: 12-18 month - ANSWER - Imitate novel behaviors
- Accurate on A task but not B
,--> Able to search in several locations for hidden object
Sensorimotor milestone: 18-24 month - ANSWER Mental representations
- Obj permanence
- Imitation - make believe play
- Symbolic understanding
Internal depictions of obj and events and representations of images and concepts
Preoperational (2-7yrs) milestones list - ANSWER 1. Marked by big advances in mental
representation
2. Make believe play emerges (Later- socio dramatic play)
3. Language takes off!
4. Dual representation
Limitations of preoperation (2-7yrs) list - ANSWER 1. not capable of operations
2. understanding the world is strongly influenced by appearance
3. rigid thinking
4. egocentrism
5. inability to conserce
6. lack of hierarchian classification
7. fail seriation tasks
dual representation - ANSWER symbols are obj by themselves, as well as symbols (obj
has dual purpose)
- ex: snoopy test
snoopy test - ANSWER 2.5 year old cannot understand, 3 year old can
, - Show 2 yr old "big snoopy" and his room/stuff & then show "little snoopy" and his
room/stuff. Researcher hides little snoopy in front of kid in little room and tell kid that is
where he is hiding in big room, but 2.5 year old cannot find big snoopy (ie. not about to
associate dual representation)
- 3 year old can complete ask easily
snoopy task piaget vs. info processing theorist - ANSWER piaget: would agree b/c
discontinuous, so ability to do so just appears
info processing: says working memory problem; To be able to build up how much can be
stored in working memory/speed of it is continuous
Egocentrism - ANSWER failure to distinguish others' symbolic viewpoints from one's
own
inability to conserve - ANSWER Thinking about number, mass, weight, volume
-- Believe change in appearance means change in basic properties
-- Focused on single aspect of situation
seriation tasks - ANSWER ordering a set of obj by shared property like size or length
(straws of diff lengths in order)
how piaget tested for intentional behavior (sensorimotor stage) - ANSWER Object
hiding task: shows baby toy, hides it, infant can find it by pushing aside obstacle and
grasping the toy
--Means-end action sequences
how piaget tested for A-not B search error (sensorimotor stage) - ANSWER Reach for
object in first hiding place, then see it moved to second hiding place, they still search in
first hiding place
