Sensorimotor Stage: Birth to 18 months

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

Stage 1: The Sensorimotor Stage: between 0 and 18 months. Piaget believed that babies learn through their senses and only experince the present, with no memories or thoughts.  He claimed that babies ‘reflex activity’ becomes the foundation for all cognitive functioning in the future, through the process of assimilation and accomodation.

 

Piaget: Pre-Operational Stage: 18 months to 7 years

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

Stage 2: The Pre-Operational Stage: between 18 months and 7 years. The major distinction between the sensorimotor stage and the preoperational stage is the degree of development and the use of internal images and symbols (e.g. words) as is marked by the establishment of object permanence.

The child uses symbolic functions, their language development accelerates and imaginative play becomes more apparent as they spend a lot of their time engaged in make-believe.

Another important difference seen in this period is that children can imitate (copy) another’s behaviour after some time has passed, implying that they have a way of symbolically remebering the original behaviour that they observed.

These actions suggest an internal cognitive mediation process between incoming stimuli and later responses.

Jeremy Kyle Meets Sigmund Freud!

Tommy, James and Will have created this funny puppet show to illustrate the Case Study of a Phobia of a Five Year Old Boy (Freud 1909).

N.B. Little Hans’s Father interviewed and observed his son and sent the notes to Freud to analyse. Freud did not observe Little Hans. The Oedipus Complex is pronounced E-dip-puss and Freud was not a spider!”
