Definition: School of psychology that
studies only observable and measurable
behavior.
John Watson:
You cannot define conscious any more than you can
define a soul.
You cannot locate or measure consciousness, and
therefore it cannot be the object of scientific study.
Studies observable, measurable behavior and nothing
more.

PSYCHOANALYSIS
The basic tenets of psychoanalysis include the following:
Human behavior, experience, and cognition are largely
determined by irrational drives;
Those drives are largely unconscious;
Attempts to bring those drives into awareness meet
psychological resistance in the form of defense mechanisms;
Beside the inherited constitution of personality, one's
development is determined by events in early childhood;
Conflicts between conscious view of reality and unconscious
(repressed) material can result in mental disturbances such as
neurosis, neurotic traits, anxiety, depression etc.;
The liberation from the effects of the unconscious material is
achieved through bringing this material into the consciousness
(via e.g. skilled guidance).[1]

now more reasonable to share and cooperate. Allen and
Marotz (2003) [7] also list some perceptual cognitive
developmental traits specific for this age group.
Children grasp the concepts of space and time in more
logical, practical ways. They gain a better understanding
of cause and effect, and of calendar time. At this stage,
children are eager to learn and accomplish more
complex skills: reading, writing, telling time. They also
get to form moral values, recognize cultural and
individual differences and are able to manage most of
their personal needs and grooming with minimal
assistance.[7] At this stage, children might express their
independence by talking back and being disobedient
and rebellious.
Each stage that came before and that follows has its own
'crisis', but even more so now, for this marks the transition
from childhood to adulthood. This passage is necessary
because "Throughout infancy and childhood, a person forms
many identifications. But the need for identity in youth is not
met by these."[9] This turning point in human development
seems to be the reconciliation between 'the person one has
come to be' and 'the person society expects one to become'.
This emerging sense of self will be established by 'forging' past
experiences with anticipations of the future. In relation to the
eight life stages as a whole, the fifth stage corresponds to the
crossroads:
What is unique about the stage of Identity is that it is a special
sort of synthesis of earlier stages and a special sort of
anticipation of later ones. Youth has a certain unique quality in
a person's life; it is a bridge between childhood and adulthood.

PIAGETS COGNITIVE
THEORY
Piaget's theory of cognitive development is a
comprehensive theory about the nature and
development of human intelligence first
developed by Jean Piaget. It is primarily known
as a developmental stage theory, but in fact, it
deals with the nature of knowledge itself and
how humans come gradually to acquire,
construct, and use it. Moreover, Piaget claims
the idea that cognitive development is at the
centre of human organism and language is
contingent on cognitive development. Below,
there is first a short description of Piaget's
views about the nature of intelligence and then
a description of the stages through which it
PIAGETS COGNITIVE
THEORY
Piaget believed that reality is a dynamic system of continuous
change, and as such is defined in reference to the two
conditions that define dynamic systems. Specifically, he argued
that
reality
involves
transformations
and
states.
Transformations refer to all manners of changes that a thing or
person can undergo. States refer to the conditions or the
appearances in which things or persons can be found between
transformations. For example, there might be changes in
shape or form (for instance, liquids are reshaped as they are
transferred from one vessel to another, humans change in their
characteristics as they grow older), in size (e.g., a series of
coins on a table might be placed close to each other or far
apart) in placement or location in space and time (e.g., various
objects or persons might be found at one place at one time and
at a different place at another time). Thus, Piaget argued, that
if human intelligence is to be adaptive, it must have functions
to represent both the transformational and the static aspects
of reality. He proposed that operative intelligence is

Assimilation and accommodation
Through studying the field of education Piaget
focused on accommodation and assimilation.
Assimilation, one of two processes coined by
Jean Piaget, describes how humans perceive
and adapt to new information. It is the process
of
taking
ones
environment
and
new
information and fitting it into pre-existing
cognitive schemas. Assimilation occurs when
humans are faced with new or unfamiliar
information and refer to previously learned
information in order to make sense of it.
Accommodation, unlike assimilation is the
process of taking one's environment and new
PIAGETS COGNITIVE
THEORY
PIAGETS COGNITIVE
THEORY
Piaget's understanding is that these two
functions cannot exist without the other. To
assimilate an object into an existing mental
schema, one first needs to take into account or
accommodate to the particularities of this
object to a certain extent; for instance, to
recognize (assimilate) an apple as an apple one
needs first to focus (accommodate) on the
contour of this object. To do this one needs to
roughly recognize the size of the object.

experiences (such as seeing and hearing) with

actions.
Infants
gain
knowledge of the world from the physical
actions they perform on it. An infant
progresses from reflexive, instinctual action at
birth to the beginning of symbolic thought

(Pre)Operatory Thought is any procedure for
mentally acting on objects. The hallmark of the
preoperational stage is sparse and logically
inadequate mental operations. During this
stage, the child learns to use and to represent
objects by images, words, and drawings.The
child is able to form stable concepts as well as
mental reasoning and magical beliefs. The
child however is still not able to perform
operations; tasks that the child can do
mentally rather than physically. Thinking is still
egocentric. The child has difficulty taking the
viewpoint of others. Two substages can be
formed from preoperative thought.[6]
PIAGETS COGNITIVE
THEORY
The Symbolic Function Substage
Occurs between about the ages of 2 and 7. At 2-4 years
of age, kids cannot yet manipulate and transform
information in logical ways, but they now can think in
images and symbols. The child is able to formulate
designs of objects that are not present. Other examples
of mental abilities are language and pretend play.
Although there is an advance in progress, there are still
limitations
such
as
egocentrism
and
animism.
Egocentrism occurs when a child is unable to distinguish
between their own perspective and that of another
person's. Children tend to pick their own view of what
they see rather than the actual view shown to others. An
example is an experiment performed by Piaget and
Barbel Inhelder. Three views of a mountain are shown
and the child is asked what a traveling doll would see at

PIAGETS COGNITIVE
THEORY
The third stage is known as Concrete operational stage (First grade to early
adolescence): Intelligence is demonstrated through logical and systematic
manipulation of symbols related to concrete objects. The child develops an
ability to think abstractly and to make rational judgements about concrete or
observable phenomena, which in the past he needed to manipulate physically to
understand. Logic: Piaget determined that children in the concrete operational
stage were able to incorporate inductive logic. On the other hand, children at
this age have difficulty using deductive logic, which involves using a general
principle to predict the outcome of a specific event. Reversibility: An example of
this is being able to reverse the order of relationships between mental
categories. For example, a child might be able to recognize that his or her dog is
a Labrador, that a Labrador is a dog, and that a dog is an animal, and draw
conclusions from the information available, as well as apply all these processes
to hypothetical situations.[8] The abstract quality of the adolescent's thought at
the formal operational level is evident in the adolescent's verbal problem solving
ability.[8] The logical quality of the adolescent's thought is when children are
more likely to solve problems in a trial-and-error fashion. [8] Adolescents begin to
think more as a scientist thinks, devising plans to solve problems and
systematically testing solutions.[8] They use hypothetical-deductive reasoning,
which means that they develop hypotheses or best guesses, and systematically
deduce, or conclude, which is the best path to follow in solving the problem. [8]
During this stage the adolescent is able to understand such things as love,
"shades of gray", logical proofs and values. During this stage the young person
begins to entertain possibilities for the future and is fascinated with what they

THEORY
Formal operational stage
The final stage is known as Formal operational stage
(adolescence and into adulthood): Intelligence is
demonstrated through the logical use of symbols related
to abstract concepts. At this point, the person is capable
of hypothetical and deductive reasoning. During this
time, people develop the ability to think about abstract
concepts. Logic: Piaget believed that deductive logic
becomes important during the formal operational stage.
This type of thinking involves hypothetical situations
and is often required in science and mathematics.
Abstract thought emerges during the formal operational
stage. Children tend to think very concretely and
specifically in earlier stages. Children begin to consider
possible outcomes and consequences of actions.

THEORY
The stages and causation
Piaget sees childrens conception of causation as a march from
"primitive" conceptions of cause to those of a more scientific, rigorous,
and mechanical nature. These primitive concepts are characterized as
magical, with a decidedly nonnatural or nonmechanical tone. Piaget
attributes this to his most basic assumption: that babies are
phenomenists. That is, their knowledge "consists of assimilating things
to schemas" from their own action such that they appear, from the
childs point of view, "to have qualities which in fact stem from the
organism." Consequently, these "subjective conceptions," so prevalent
during Piagets first stage of development, are dashed upon
discovering deeper empirical truths. Piaget gives the example of a
child believing the moon and stars follow him on a night walk; upon
learning that such is the case for his friends, he must separate his self
from the object, resulting in a theory that the moon is immobile, or
moves independently of other agents. The second stage, from around
three to eight years of age, is characterized by a mix of this type of
magical, animistic, or nonnatural conceptions of causation and
mechanical or "naturalisitic" causation. This conjunction of natural and
nonnatural causal explanations supposedly stems from experience
itself, though Piaget does not make much of an attempt to describe the

The theory holds that moral reasoning, the
basis for ethical behavior, has six identifiable
developmental stages, each more adequate at
responding to moral dilemmas than its
predecessor.[2]
Kohlberg
followed
the
development of moral judgment far beyond the
ages studied earlier by Piaget,[3] who also
claimed that logic and morality develop
through constructive stages.[2] Expanding on
Piaget's work, Kohlberg determined that the
process of moral development was principally
concerned with justice, and that it continued
throughout the individual's lifetime,[4] a notion
that spawned dialogue on the philosophical

Kohlberg's six stages can be more
generally grouped into three levels of
two stages each: pre-conventional,

attention to detail.
KOHLBERGS STAGE OF
DEVELOPMENT
Pre-conventional
The pre-conventional level of moral reasoning
is especially common in children, although
adults can also exhibit this level of reasoning.
Reasoners at this level judge the morality of an
action by its direct consequences. The preconventional level consists of the first and
second stages of moral development, and is
solely concerned with the self in an egocentric
manner. A child with preconventional morality
has not yet adopted or internalized society's
conventions regarding what is right or wrong,
but instead focuses largely on external
consequences that certain actions may bring. [7]
KOHLBERGS STAGE OF
DEVELOPMENT
In Stage one (obedience and punishment
driven), individuals focus on the direct
consequences of their actions on themselves.
For example, an action is perceived as morally
wrong because the perpetrator is punished.
"The last time I did that I got spanked so I will
not do it again." The worse the punishment for
the act is, the more "bad" the act is perceived
to be.[16] This can give rise to an inference that
even innocent victims are guilty in proportion
to their suffering. It is "egocentric", lacking
recognition that others' points of view are
different
from
one's
own.[17]
There
is
"deference to superior power or prestige". [17]
KOHLBERGS STAGE OF
DEVELOPMENT
Stage two (self-interest driven) espouses the
"what's in it for me" position, in which right
behavior is defined by whatever is in the
individual's best interest. Stage two reasoning
shows a limited interest in the needs of others,
but only to a point where it might further the
individual's own interests. As a result, concern
for others is not based on loyalty or intrinsic
respect, but rather a "You scratch my back,
and I'll scratch yours." mentality.[2] The lack of
a societal perspective in the pre-conventional
level is quite different from the social contract
(stage five), as all actions have the purpose of
serving the individual's own needs or interests.
KOHLBERGS STAGE OF
DEVELOPMENT
Conventional
The conventional level of moral reasoning is
typical of adolescents and adults. Those who
reason in a conventional way judge the
morality of actions by comparing them to
society's
views
and
expectations.
The
conventional level consists of the third and
fourth
stages
of
moral
development.
Conventional morality is characterized by an
acceptance of society's conventions concerning
right and wrong. At this level an individual
obeys rules and follows society's norms even
when there are no consequences for obedience
or disobedience. Adherence to rules and
KOHLBERGS STAGE OF
DEVELOPMENT
In Stage three (interpersonal accord and conformity
driven), the self enters society by filling social roles
. Individuals are receptive to approval or
disapproval from others as it reflects society's
accordance with the perceived role. They try to be
a "good boy" or "good girl" to live up to these
expectations,[2] having learned that there is
inherent value in doing so. Stage three reasoning
may judge the morality of an action by evaluating
its
consequences
in
terms
of
a
person's
relationships, which now begin to include things
like respect, gratitude and the "golden rule". "I
want to be liked and thought well of; apparently,
not being naughty makes people like me." Desire to
maintain rules and authority exists only to further

DEVELOPMENT
KOHLBERGS STAGE OF
DEVELOPMENT
Post-Conventional
The post-conventional level, also known as the
principled level, is marked by a growing realization that
individuals are separate entities from society, and that
the individuals own perspective may take precedence
over societys view; individuals may disobey rules
inconsistent with their own principles. Post-conventional
moralists live by their own ethical principlesprinciples
that typically include such basic human rights as life,
liberty,
and
justice.

who

DEVELOPMENT
Some theorists have speculated that many
people may never reach this level of abstract
moral reasoning.[7][8][9]
In Stage five (social contract driven), the world
is viewed as holding different opinions, rights
and values. Such perspectives should be
mutually respected as unique to each person
or
community.
Laws
are
regarded
as
social contracts rather than rigid edicts. Those
that do not promote the general welfare
should be changed when necessary to meet
the greatest good for the greatest number of
people.[8]
This
is
achieved
through
majority decision, and inevitable compromise.
KOHLBERGS STAGE OF
DEVELOPMENT
In Stage six (universal ethical principles driven), moral
reasoning is based on abstract reasoning using
universal ethical principles. Laws are valid only insofar
as they are grounded in justice, and a commitment to
justice carries with it an obligation to disobey unjust
laws. Legal rights are unnecessary, as social contracts
are not essential for deontic moral action. Decisions are
not reached hypothetically in a conditional way but
rather categorically in an absolute way, as in the
philosophy of Immanuel Kant.[18] This involves an
individual imagining what they would do in anothers
shoes, if they believed what that other person imagines
to be true.[19] The resulting consensus is the action
taken. In this way action is never a means but always an
end in itself; the individual acts because it is right, and
not because it is instrumental, expected, legal, or
previously agreed upon. Although Kohlberg insisted that
