1a)Sammy is learning to walk. He practices often, even though crawling would get him where he wants to go more quickly. You believe that Sammy continues to practice walking because of his internal motivation. You also believe that whether Sammy chooses to walk in any given context will vary depending on his current goals. Given these beliefs, you probably prescribe to___________. Piaget would likely agree with __________ of your explanation about Sammy’s development: Select one: i. Information processing theories; some ii. Information processing theories; all iii. Dynamic systems theories; some iv. Dynamic systems theories; all 1b)According to Piaget, development is both continuous and discontinuous. Which of the following aspects of Piagetian theory would be considered a source of discontinuity? Select one: i. A child sees a raccoon for the first time and assumes it is a cat, but updates his belief after his mother tells him it is a raccoon ii. A 4-year-old thinks that pouring juice from a short glass to a tall glass changes the quantity, while an 8-year-old recognizes that the two glasses hold the same amount of liquid iii. A baby demonstrates intelligence by grasping an object and bringing it to her mouth to suck. iv. B & C 1c)In an intervention, babies who had been born prematurely were provided with Velcro mittens that helped them to reach and grasp objects earlier than they would otherwise have been able to. You predict that this will speed up their cognitive development, because you believe that developing motor skills, such as reaching, contribute to cognitive development. You most likely believe in: Select one: i. Dynamic-systems theories ii. Sociocultural theories iii. Information processing theories iv. Core-knowledge theories
