Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Piaget's theory suggested that children's cognitive abilities develop in stages and that they must reach a certain level of development to complete certain tasks. However, research has shown that presenting tasks in different ways can help children complete them earlier. This is because different presentations can appeal to different cognitive abilities and skills, allowing children to use these skills to complete the task. Egocentric thinking and gender schemas are not related to completing tasks earlier, and while attending day care can impact cognitive development, it is not specific to completing tasks earlier.
