Extract:
A three-year-old
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following cognitive behaviors would be expected in a three-year-old according to Piaget's theory of cognitive development?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: According to Piaget's theory, symbolic play is a cognitive behavior expected in a three-year-old. Piaget believed that children in the preoperational stage engage in symbolic play, where they use objects to represent other objects. This behavior demonstrates the child's ability to use symbols, a key aspect of cognitive development at this age. Abstract reasoning (
A), conservation (
C), and logical reasoning (
D) are characteristics of the concrete operational stage, which typically occurs around age 7.
Therefore, these behaviors would not be expected in a three-year-old according to Piaget's theory.
