Jean Piaget's Stages of Cognitive Development
  1. Sensorimotor stage: Babies are relying solely on their senses
  2. Pre Operational stage: 
  • Ages 2-7
  • babies begin to use language to represent objects and ideals
  • Egocentric: cannot look at the world through anyone else's eyes but their own.
  • Conservation: refers to the idea that a quantity remains the same despite changes in appearance and is part of logical thinking.
      3. Concrete Operational Stage
  • can demonstrate concept of conservation
  • learn to think logically
  • Ages 7 to 11.
      4. Formal Operational Stage
  • abstract reasoning
  • manipulate objects in our minds without seeing them
  • hypothesis testing
  • trial and error
  • metacognition
  • not every adult gets to this tage
Types of Intelligence

Crystallized Intelligence
  • accustomed knowledge
  • increase with age
Fluid intelligence

Moral Development (Lawrence Kolberg)
3 Stages...
  1. Pre-Conventional Morality: morality based on rewards and punishments
  2. Conventional Morality: based on how others see you.
  • If your peers, or society, thinks it's wrong, then so do you.
