| What and when is hypothetico-deductive reasoning? | Being able to manipulate hypothetical ideas and consider what could happen. Happens in the formal operational stage. |
| Aim of the Piaget and Inhelder study and when (year)? | To investigate at what age children are able to take the view of another person. Also to study children's overall system of putting together a number of different views that they see. 1956 |
| How many participants and what age? | 100 children from the age of 4 - 12 |
| Describe the mountain model. | 3D model built with paper and car. The lowest mountain was green with a house on top The middle mountain was brown with a red cross The tallest grey with snow on the top. |
| Describe the 10 pictures. | 10 pictures taken of the model from different positions. Children asked to pick out the one their own viewpoint and one that represents the doll's viewpoint. |
| Describe the 3 cards. | 3 cards to match the colour of the mountains. Children asked to arrange the cards to represent the mountain scene from different viewpoints. |
| Results of children age from 4 - 6.5 (piaget) | They couldn't place the doll in a position to match that was shown in a picture. |
| Results of children age 7 - 9 (Piaget) | Showed more understanding of different viewpoints and able to pick pictures and represents the doll's viewpoint. |
| Conclusion about children age 7 | They are egocentric, they couldn't see from another viewpoint that was different from themselves. |
| Conclusion about older children | They were non-egocentric, they were able to compare their own viewpoint to the viewpoint of others. |
| Conclusion about Piaget's theory | This supports Piaget's stages of development, show the key to cognitive difference between pre-operational and concrete operational stages which is egocentrism |
| One weakness | Sample was unrepresentative, only 100 children and only selected ages. Sample wasn't enough and they were from the same culture so it was culturally biased. |
| Another weakness | The setting and task were artificial, so hard to apply to real life situation. They were in a room with an observer |
| One strength | Standardised procedure. The same tests, photos, observes ad instructions. Making it easier to replicate. |
| Another strength | An experiment method, high levels of control. It can be manipulated. The experiment would be the same for everyone. |
| An improvement for generalisability | A higher sample of people that come from different backgrounds (different countries) |
| An improvement of ecological validity | Instead of artificial environment, take them outside to actual mountains. |
| Pierre Dasen evaluating theory. | In Geneva, found that between 10 to 13 not 5-7 as Piaget said. Challenges his theory with conservation it happens later than they said in the stages. |
| Helen broke evaluating theory | Test egocentrism, used grover from 'Sesame street' to make them understand his point of view. The model could also rotate. 79% of 4 year olds selected the right view 93% of the time. Challenges the theory because younger children could identify the results. |
