Question

When jenna's mother gives her a cup for the first time, jenna tries to suck on it as if it were a bottle. according to piaget, jenna is trying to ___________ the cup into her _________ for bottles?

Answer 1

Piaget studied cognitive development in children. One of the important concepts that he introduced is schemas. The following is a textbook definition of schemas: a cohesive, repeatable action sequence possessing component actions that are tightly interconnected and governed by a core meaning. Essentially, this means that things like tidying up your room, paying a bill are cognitive schemas; one has to thing of the small steps (taking out money, talking to the cashier, cleaning, putting stuff in place) and do them in the correct order. Piaget studied simpler schemas and one of the could be the schema for drinking from a bottle.
One does not need new schemas for every new experience. It is usual that 2 activities are similar enough that the same schema can be applied. In this case, we say that the schema was assimilated to the new situation.
Hence, the answer is: assimilate-schema

Answer 2

When Jenna’s mother gives her a cup for the first time, Jenna tries to suck on it as if it were a bottle. According to Piaget, Jenna is trying to assimilate the cup into a schema for bottles.

Further explanation:

Piaget has introduced the concept of schema. According to him, schemas are the building block of the cognitive model and helps us in forming mental representation. Piaget studied simple schemas and one schema is drinking from a bottle.

PIAGET’S CONCEPT OF SCHEMAS

An individual doesn’t need new schemas for new experiences. When the two activities are similar enough then the same schema is applied. In that case, the schema is assimilated into the new situation. Piaget emphasizes how these schemas are acquired and developed by a child. An individual can have a schema about cleaning his room and buying clothes from the market.  

Piaget has given four stages of cognitive development of children which are as follow:

1. Sensorimotor

2. Preoperational stage

3. Concrete operational stage

4. Formal operational stage
