An experimenter shows a child two clay "sausages" that are identical in size and shape and then allows the child to watch as she rolls one of the clay sausages into a longer, thinner sausage. The experimenter then asks the child whether the two clay sausages still contain the same amount of clay. A child in Piaget's concrete operational stage would be MOST likely to say: Group of answer choices

Respuesta :

Answer:

"No, the longer sausage has more clay than the shorter sausage."

Explanation:

This is a conservation experiment.

Piaget's theory of cognitive development is made of of different stages of  which the Concrete operational stage is the third stage. in this stage which occurs between the ages of  7 to 11 years. it is the beginning of a major turning point in cognitive development and it  is far more logical, flexible, and organized. The child  in this stage is capable of mental operations and learns to manipulate symbols.

Piaget shows the best way for children to learn is  by allowing them experimenting with the world on their own. He further shows that children in the concrete operational stage are not that good  at  inductive logic (inductive reasoning) use.
