Answer:

Cognitive Equilibrium.

Explanation:

Deshawn is experiencing cognitive equilibrium that exemplifies a balance between an individual's mental framework and the environment. The equilibrium(balance) is achieved when expectations or the schemata based on earlier knowledge equips with the new knowledge. It is one of the four crucial factors in cognitive development.

Jean Piaget outlined this equilibration as the process that refines the mental arrangements or constructions and reforms it positively, which defines the basis of cognitive development as it transforms an individual to move from the developmental stage to another.
