Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Preoperational intelligence, as described by Jean Piaget, is focused on the development of symbolic thought. This allows children to use words, gestures, and other symbols to represent objects and ideas. Logical reasoning and reversibility of thought do not typically develop until the concrete operational stage, which follows preoperational intelligence. Motor skills and senses are important in early childhood development, but they are not the primary focus of preoperational intelligence.
