4 DEV Stages
1. Sensorimotor
2. Preoperational
3. Concrete Operations
4. Formal Operations =
assimilation & accommodation = resolving disequilibriums
= adaptation to environment
Information Processing
Mind = Computer
Info flows in-->operated on-->output - answers, inferences, solutions
Cognitive DEV = age-related changes in mind's hardware (brain) & software (mental processes eg attention,memory)
Brain-maturation = faster info processing
influenced by experiences, ie the problems presented to children
Probs = not naturalistic eg lab conditions, underestimates diversity of cognition
BIological/Evolutionary
(Bowlby 1973)
humans born with adaptive attributes thru natural selection
adaptive attributes = DEV = survival
humans influenced by experiences
'sensitive periods' = times when certaiin adaptive characteristics arelikelyto DEV, provided environ supports DEV
biologically-influenced attributes affect the type of learningexperiences received
