Study Notes
Piaget's Stages of Cognitive Development
-
Sensorimotor (Birth - 2 years): Infants learn about the world through senses and motor actions. Object permanence develops.
-
Preoperational (2 - 7 years): Symbolic thinking emerges, including pretend play. Egocentrism and animism are characteristics. Difficulty understanding perspectives of others
-
Concrete Operational (7 - 11 years): Logical reasoning about concrete events and objects develops. Conservation and reversibility are understood.
-
Formal Operational (11+ years): Abstract and hypothetical thinking emerges. Inductive and deductive reasoning improve.
Erikson's Psychosocial Stages
- Trust vs. Mistrust (Infancy): Infants develop trust when their needs are consistently met.
- Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt (Toddler): Toddlers develop independence and self-control.
- Initiative vs. Guilt (Preschool): Preschoolers develop a sense of purpose and initiative.
- Industry vs. Inferiority (School Age): School-age children develop competence and a sense of self-worth through success.
- Identity vs. Role Confusion (Adolescence): Adolescents develop a sense of self and personal identity.
