Study Notes
Cognitive, Emotional, and Social Changes in Children Aged Three to Six Years
- Piaget's categorization of cognitive development has four stages: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational.
- Preoperational stage lasts from 18 months to 7 years, with two sub-stages: preconceptual period (2-4 years) and period of intuitive thought (4-7 years).
- In the preconceptual phase, the child's mental prowess develops rapidly, and they acquire the ability to think symbolically with mental imagery.
- The preconceptual mind generalizes all entities and is centered on one aspect of the whole of the structure, disregarding all other features.
- The period of intuitive thought starts at around 4 years and lasts until age 7 or 8 years, with abilities to group objects according to class, using more complex thoughts and images.
- Emotional changes in children aged three to six include self-control, a sense of sexual identity, and emerging self-esteem.
- Aggression in children is often caused by their inability to exert self-control and can be instrumental or hostile.
- Children who remain hostilely aggressive during preschool years come from families in which parents and other children are also overtly aggressive.
- Children aged three to six can understand taking turns, engage in cooperative play by age 4, and participate in simple team games by age 6.
- Personal identification and how to relate to other people are crucial for social growth in children aged three to six.
- The medical-psychoanalytic theory suggests that children aged three to six may experience Oedipus or Electra complex.
- Children aged three to six are emotionally complex, susceptible to praise, and can relate to the emotions of other people.
