Psychology is filled with many different theories‚ one being Jean Piaget’s theory on cognitive development. Piaget’s theory of development is divided into four different stages; sensorimotor‚ preoperational‚ concrete‚ and formal operations.

The first stage is the sensorimotor stage which occurs

Assimilation and Accommodation Jean Piaget viewed intellectual growth as a process of adaptation (adjustment) to the world. This happens through: * Assimilation‚ which is using an existing schema to deal with a new object or situation. * Accommodation – this happens when the existing schema (knowledge) does not work‚ and needs to be changed to deal with a new object or situation. * Equilibration – occurs when a child’s schemas can deal with most new information through assimilation
