they cause each other—e.g. all women w/ big bellies
have babies).
Describe Piaget's Concrete Operational Stage:
Ans: 7-11 y.o.
-Conservation (realize that physical factors such as
volume, weight, & number remain the same even
though outward appearances are changed);
-Inductive (based on evidence, conclusion is probably
true).
Describe Piaget's Formal Operational Stage:
Ans: 11 - 15 y.o., adulthood
-Adaptability & flexibility.
-Abstract thinking.
