Behaviorist Approach of Cognitive Development01:18

Behaviorist Approach of Cognitive Development

Learning approaches explain cognitive development through observable learning processes and the ways experiences shape behavior. During infancy, learning can happen through classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and modeling. These processes allow infants to form associations, respond to consequences, and learn by observing others.Classical and Operant ConditioningClassical conditioning happens when an infant associates a previously neutral stimulus with another stimulus that naturally...

Preoperational Thought II: Object Space and Causality

Jean Piaget’s preoperational stage, spanning ages 2 to 7, is marked by symbolic thought and the development of spatial and causal reasoning. Although Piaget emphasized the limitations of children’s logic, later research suggests that preschoolers may reason more effectively than he initially proposed.Developing Spatial UnderstandingAround age 3, children begin understanding that two-dimensional images and models can represent real spaces. This allows them to interpret pictures, maps, and scale...

Imitation During Infancy and Toddlerhood

Imitation is an important form of learning in early childhood, allowing children to learn new behaviors and participate in social interactions. Children imitate others for different purposes. They may copy adults and peers to learn skills and build social connections. Imitation becomes especially important toward the end of the first year.Early Development of ImitationPiaget observed that infants initially imitate actions they can see themselves perform, such as hand or foot movements. By about...
Introduction to Learning01:18

Introduction to Learning

Learning is the process of acquiring knowledge or skills through practice or experience, leading to long-lasting behavioral changes. This acquisition occurs through interaction with the environment and requires practice or experience. For instance, mastering a skill such as surfing requires considerable practice and experience, highlighting the essential role of repeated interactions with the environment in learning.
In contrast to learned behaviors, unlearned behaviors such as crying, sexual...
Symbolic Understanding II: Displaced Reference01:27

Symbolic Understanding II: Displaced Reference

Displaced reference is an important milestone in symbolic understanding that begins to emerge around 12 months of age. It is the ability to use words to refer to objects, people, or events that are not currently visible. This ability allows infants and toddlers to learn through communication even when objects or events are not directly present.Early DevelopmentBy approximately 12 to 13 months, infants may respond to the name of an absent familiar object by looking or pointing toward the place...

Symbolic Understanding I: Pictorial Competence

Symbolic understanding is the ability to use symbols, such as words, gestures, or images, to represent objects, people, and concepts that may not be physically present. An important part of this ability is pictorial competence, or the understanding that a picture represents something other than itself. For example, recognizing a yellow circle with rays as the sun shows pictorial competence.Early Responses to PicturesSome foundations of pictorial understanding appear early in infancy. By about...
