At the beginning of his life, he was interested in biology but then he turned his attention to studying the evolution of thought in children, which led him to study psychology. “Over the course of his career in child psychology, he identified four stages of mental development, called “schema.” He also developed new fields of scientific study, including cognitive theory

There have been many people to contribute to the psychology, one being Jean Piaget. Piaget attended college in the town he was born in, Neuchatel, Switzerland where he received a doctorate in biology at the age of 22. He then became very interested in psychology and being to research and study this subject. Piaget and Freud, another developmental stage theorist, had similar beliefs when it came to psychology and how people developed. However, Piaget was a cognitive theorist and his focus was mainly

Jean Piaget and Lev Vygostky developed theories that addressed cognitive development and learning in childhood, and adolescence. There are numerous similarities between the two, but there are also a few differences. Both Piaget, and Vygostky were certain that their theory was the right one and the only one that should be used when discussing childhood development. Piaget’s theory explained the changes in logical thinking in children and adolescents (Cole & Wertsch, 1996, p. xx). In Piaget’s theory

Jean Piaget’s four stages of development explain the stages of the average cognitive development from childhood through adulthood. These four stages involve reasoning, intellectual capacity, and judgment. The four stages include the Sensorimotor Stage, the Preoperational Stage, the Concrete Operational Stage, and the Formal Operational Stage. Piaget recognized that some children may go through these stages at various ages, and children might even show signs of going through more than one stage at

Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky both have very different yet similar views about the child and tenets within their theoretical perspectives. While Piaget sees children as upcoming scientists, many discoveries found were attained at each of his four stages. Vygotsky views the childas competent who is capable and the childs development is led by learning. Though Vygotsky puts huge emphasis

From birth to two, children go through the sensorimotor stage, experiencing the world through the senses; they look, hear, and touch. 1b. Object permanence is the awareness that things continue to exist even when they are no longer being perceived. Jean Piaget’s explanation for the infant’s lack of object permanence is that prior to six months old, the brain is still undeveloped and cannot understand that the object

As human beings age they go through many stages of physical and mental development. Psychologists have broken these stages of development down in different ways based on what aspect of the mind is being studied. Jean Piaget, the first to officially study cognitive development, theorized that there were four main stages of development throughout life. Those stages are the sensorimotor stage, between birth and age two, the preoperational stage, ages two to seven, the concrete operational stage, ages
