प्रश्न
Compare the cognitive developmental characteristics during childhood and adolescence.
उत्तर
- Childhood cognitive development is marked by a fast increase in basic thinking skills, language acquisition, and problem-solving ability. As children enter middle childhood, they transition from tangible, present-oriented thinking to more logical reasoning. Their attention span, memory, and capacity to recognise cause-and-effect relationships improve dramatically.
- Adolescence cognitive growth develops more complex and abstract. Adolescents learn to think in theory, use complicated reasoning, and examine many views. They also start to think more critically about themselves and the world around them, challenging previously held beliefs and values. This period is defined by the rise of reflection, or the ability to think about one's thought processes.
