Worked practice questions

Vygotsky saw children's self-talk as a tool for:

  1. Showing immaturity
  2. Copying adult speech
  3. Gaining adult attention
  4. Self-guidance and control
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Self-guidance and control

1. Vygotsky argued that egocentric speech is part of normal development. 2. It supports communication, self-guidance and self-regulation of behaviour. 3. It also supports planning, pacing and monitoring skills. 4. Showing immaturity is Piaget's view, not Vygotsky's. **Why not the others:** Showing immaturity is Piaget's view. Copying adult speech and gaining adult attention are not the purposes Vygotsky gave. _Source: Wikipedia, "Private speech", section "History and theory" (revision 1378894484)_

Vygotsky held that children's egocentric speech eventually becomes:

  1. Babbling talk
  2. Telegraphic speech
  3. Inner speech
  4. Complete silence
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Inner speech

1. Piaget and Vygotsky differed on the fate of egocentric speech. 2. Piaget thought egocentric speech simply dissolved away as children matured. 3. Vygotsky showed that egocentric speech became inner speech. 4. Inner speech is silent speech used for thought. 5. Babbling and telegraphic speech are earlier stages of speaking to others. 6. So Vygotsky's answer is inner speech. **Why the other options fail:** - Babbling talk comes in infancy before words. - Telegraphic speech is a two-word stage addressed to others. - Complete silence is closer to Piaget's view that it dissolved away. _Source: Wikipedia, "Lev Vygotsky", section "Major themes of research" (revision 1377698493)_

Children use more private speech when tasks are:

  1. Quite easy
  2. Already mastered
  3. More difficult
  4. Done as a group
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. More difficult

1. Private speech helps children regulate behaviour. 2. Research shows children use more private speech when asked to do more difficult tasks. 3. They also use more when working without a teacher's help. 4. So difficulty increases private speech. **Why not the others:** Quite easy tasks and mastered tasks need little self-guidance, and group work gives help from others. _Source: Wikipedia, "Private speech", section "Behavioral self-regulation and emotion regulation" (revision 1378894484)_
