Document Summary

Found it interesting that children got certain questions wrong: spent the rest of his life working with children, biology background. Infants cant represent objects in thought (can only respond to what they see hear and touch experience with their senses) Object permanence: objects continue to exist even when they cant be seen (cid:149) (cid:149) (cid:149) (cid:149) (cid:149) Children don"t understand that when you cover something it actually isn"t gone: they truly believe the object disappears. At the end of this stage they begin to understand object permanence and then move into the pre- operation stage. Can understand that words represent things: they can hold these things in their brains. Concept: abstract ideas about what a group of objects has in common. E. g can tell the concept of cats, can tell the difference between cats and dogs. Rely on one property to define concepts i. e. mom went to the hospital and had a baby.
