Frage
• Leslie [blank_start]Rescorla[blank_end] – [blank_start]1980[blank_end] Studied children's [blank_start]overextensions[blank_end] and established 3 main types: 1) Categorical = a word for a member of one category is extended to other members of the same category. eg. using 'apple' to label all fruit 2) [blank_start]Analogical[blank_end] = a word for one object used for another object that bears a similar function of physical attribute. eg. calling a hat a 'hairbrush' (as both are used on head) 3) [blank_start]Predicate[blank_end]/Mismatch Statements = a word used to make a statement in relation to another object. eg. saying 'Dolly' upon seeing an empty doll's bed Findings showed that the majority of a child's overextensions were [blank_start]categorical[blank_end]. - [blank_start]25[blank_end]% mismatch statements - 15% [blank_start]analogical[blank_end]

Genetic [blank_start]epistemology[blank_end] (theory of [blank_start]cognitive[blank_end] development): [blank_start]Piaget[blank_end] believed that cognitive development is [blank_start]facilitated[blank_end] by providing activities or situations that engage learners and require adaptation.
