Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Piaget's theory of cognitive development identifies four stages, and the concrete operational stage is the third one, which corresponds to children aged 7 to 11 years old. During this period, they can logically classify objects and understand the relationships between them, but they are still limited in their ability to think abstractly, which is the hallmark of the next stage, formal operational. The previous stages are the sensorimotor, from birth to 2 years, and the preoperational, from 2 to 7 years old.
