alleryWhy do children of different ages err differently, per Piaget?
ASpeed rather than depth
BQuality rather than quantity
CQuantity rather than quality
DInterest rather than ability
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Quality rather than quantity
1. Piaget did not see young children as having less of adult thinking.
2. He held that their intelligence differs in quality rather than quantity.
3. So a younger child thinks in a different way, not just a smaller amount.
