Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Centration refers to the tendency for young children to focus on only one aspect of a situation and ignore other relevant factors. Bill's belief that the big empty box is heavier than a small box full of rocks is an example of centration because he is only considering the size of the box and not the weight of the objects inside.
