What are Piaget's four stages of cognitive development

1. Sensorimotor
2. Preoperational
3. Concrete operational
4. Formal operational

Sensorimotor Stage

the first stage in Piaget's cognitive development stages. Involves the first two years and has six sub-stages;

Simple Reflexes

first sub-stage of sensorimotor stage. Frist month after birth. Neonates begin to assimilate objects into reflexive responses.

Primary Circulars Reactions

the second sub-stage of sensorimotor stage. From 1 to 4 months. Involves infant repeating actions and focusing on his/her own body. Has little interest in external environment.

Secondary Circulars Reactions

the third sub-stage of sensorimotor stage. Last from 4 to 8 months. Patterns of activity are repeated because of their effect on the environment. The focus shifts to objects to environment.

Coordination of Secondary Schemes

the forth sub-stage of sensorimotor stage. Infants adjust their behavior to attain certain goals. Example: Picking up a blanket to get their toy underneath it. Infants can also imitate gestures and sounds that they use to ignore.

Tertiary Circular Reactions

The purposeful adaptations of established schemes to new situations. Behavior takes on new experiments and learns from trail and error. It is the fifth sub-stage of sensorimotor stage. Last from 12 to 18 months.

Inventions of New Means through Mental Combinations

It is the sixth sub-stage of sensorimotor stage. Last from 18 to 24 months. Serves as a transition between sensorimotor development and the development of symbolic thought

Object Permanence

the recognition that objects or people continue to exist when they are not in view. Aspect of sensorimotor development. Example: Peek-a-boo. 2 month baby thinks you are gone when you cover your face if object permanence is not developed yet.

Deferred imitation

The imitation of an action that occurred in the past. Piaget through that deferred imitation have at 18 month but it really can occur as early as 9 months!

Information processing involves what two abilities?

Memory and imitation

Explain growth of memory

Memory improves dramatically between 2 to 6 months and then again at 12 months.
Carolyn Rovee-Collier study

Visual recognition memory

is the ability to discriminate previously seen objects from new objects.

Prelinguistic

Intonation

the use of pitches and sounds to try and communicate with parents. Happens at the end of the year.

Receptive Vocabulary

The number of words one understand

Expressive Vocabulary

The number of words one can use in the production of language.
Example: 12-month-old can speak about 13 words and comprehend 84 words.

Referential language style

Use of language primarily as a means for labeling objects

Expressive language style

Use of language primarily as a means for engaging in social interactions. Children that practice this style often use more pronouns. More kids use Expressive then referential style

Overextension

Type of speech in which sentences contain only the essential words

Holophrases

are single words that are used to express complex meanings. Example: "come here, mama"

Syntax

The rules in a language for combining words in order to form sentences

Models

(apart of learning theory) those whose behaviors are imitated by others

Extinction

decrease in frequency of a response due to absence of reinforcement. Babies will decrease the babbling when do not respond to their native babble.

Shaping

Gradual building of complex behaviors thought reinforcement of successive approximations to the target behavior.

Psycholinguistic Theory

The view that language learning involves an interaction between environmental influences and an inborn tendency to acquire language.

Language Acquisition Device (LAD)

An inborn tendency to acquire language, which primes the learning of grammar.

Surface Structure

the superficial feature of language, especially vocabulary and grammar.

Deep Structure

The underlying set of rules for transformation ideas into sentences

Aphasia

a disruption in the ability to understand or produce language.

Broca's area

located near the section of the motor cortex that controls the muscles of the tongue and throat

Broca's Aphasia

an aphasia caused by damage to the Broca's area and shown by difficulty in speaking. People with damaged Broca speak laboriously in a pattern

Wernicke's area

lies near the auditory cortex and is connected to Broca's ears by nerves

Wernicke's Aphasia

an aphasia caused by damage to Wernicke's area. People with damage to Wernicke's area can speak freely with proper syntax but have trouble understanding speech and finding words to express themselves.
