Unit 9: Developmental Psychology WHS AP Psychology Unit 9: Developmental Psychology Essential Task 9-3: Explain the maturation of cognitive abilities according to Piaget with specific attention to object permanence in the sensorimotor stage, magical thinking, theory of mind, and the lack of conservation and reversible thinking in the preoperational stage, overcoming the limitations of the preoperational stage in the concrete operational stage, and the development of abstract reasoning in the formal operational stage.

Cognitive Development Piaget believed that the driving force behind cognitive development is our biological development (maturation) As we get older we enter into new cognitive stages. OBJECTIVE 8| State Piaget’s understanding of how the mind develops, and discuss the importance of assimilation and accommodation in this process.

Star Wars according to a 3 year old Schemas Schemas are mental molds that we use to organize our world and are formed from experiences. Star Wars according to a 3 year old

Assimilation and Accommodation The process of assimilation involves incorporating new experiences into our current understanding (schema). The process of adjusting a schema and modifying it is called accommodation. Bill Anderson/ Photo Researchers, Inc. Jean Piaget with a subject

Complex Classification Mental Reps OBJECTIVE 9| Outline Piaget’s four main stages of cognitive development, and comment on how children’s thinking changes during these four stages. Complex Classification

Sensorimotor Stage 0-2 In the sensorimotor stage, babies take in the world by looking, hearing, touching, mouthing, and grasping. They are learning to sense They are learning to move

Object Permanence THE major cognitive ability gained at this stage. Definition - objects that are out of sight still exist. Drop the mic and walk away. Children younger than 6 months of age do not grasp object permanence

Other cognitive power-ups during the sensorimotor stage. Stranger Anxiety Separation Anxiety (depends on attachment to the parent) Sense of Self

© Christina Kennedy/ PhotoEdit Stranger anxiety The fear of strangers that develops at around 8 months. This is the age at which infants form schemas for familiar faces and cannot assimilate a new face. OBJECTIVE 11| Define stranger anxiety. © Christina Kennedy/ PhotoEdit

Separation Anxiety Separation anxiety peaks at 13 months of age, regardless of whether the children are home or sent to day care.

Sensorimotor Stage: Criticisms Piaget believed children in the sensorimotor stage could not think —they do not have any abstract concepts or ideas. However, recent research shows that children in the sensorimotor stage can think and count. Children understand the basic laws of physics. They are amazed at how a ball can stop in midair or disappear.

Sensorimotor Stage: Criticisms 2. Children can also count. Wynn (1992, 2000) showed that children stared longer at the wrong number of objects than the right ones.

Preoperational Stage Piaget suggested that from 2 years old to about 6-7 years old, children are in the preoperational stage—too young to perform mental operations.

Development of Mental Representations! DeLoache (1987) showed that children as young as 3 years of age are able to use metal operations. When shown a model of a dog’s hiding place behind the couch, a 2½-year-old could not locate the stuffed dog in an actual room, but the 3-year-old did. Hence language development and pretend play

Development of a Theory of Mind Preschoolers, although still egocentric, develop the ability to understand another’s mental state when they begin forming a theory of mind. The problem on the right probes such ability in children.

Problems in Preoperational Stage Lack Conservation Centration Irreversibility Concrete Perceptually Bound Magical thinkers

Concrete Operational Stage In concrete operational stage, given concrete materials, 6- to 7-year-olds grasp conservation problems and mentally pour liquids back and forth into glasses of different shapes conserving their quantities. Children in this stage are also able to transform mathematical functions. So, if 4 + 8 = 12, then a transformation, 12 – 4 = 8, is also easily doable.

Formal Operational Stage Around age 12, our reasoning ability expands from concrete thinking to abstract thinking. We can now use symbols and imagined realities to systematically reason. Piaget called this formal operational thinking.

Formal Operational Stage Rudiments of such thinking begin earlier (age 7) than what Piaget suggested, since 7-year-olds can solve the problem below (Suppes, 1982). If John is in school, Mary is in school. John is in school. What can you say about Mary?

Reflecting on Piaget’s Theory Piaget’s stage theory has been influential globally, validating a number of ideas regarding growth and development in many cultures and societies. However, today’s researchers believe the following: Development is a continuous process. Children express their mental abilities and operations at an earlier age. Formal logic is a smaller part of cognition. OBJECTIVE 10| Discuss psychologists’ current views on Piaget’s theory of cognitive development.
