[mskhatiga]

Obviously your mom tough you girls really well. Now we are doing an assignment on this video in our developmental psychology class!

I wanna do the water lol

[IAMHOTuKNOWit]

Too cute.

[epizeuxis92]

thanks! it's a good vid.. it really helped me..

[jayjaypen2]

It's always nice to see classic experiments in action beyond the text.

This comparative task by Piaget was another of his methodological flaws. Try asking the child to select from 3 possible answers: 'more', 'the same', 'less'. Thus, the child is merely forced into an immature interpretation of the question as one that requires a superlative answer.

lol thanks for the vid, I'm last-minute cramming for developmental psych and I had no clue what piagetian conservation tasks were. Now I know :D

[JimmythePenguin210]

Psychology is so interesting. It's my favorite class and seeing how a child's mind develops is fancinating .. thanks for the video. it helps because actually watching the test being done is better than just reading it in a textbook

I had to laugh about subjecting the poor children comment. My sister is an educational psych. I'm not. She did this with her child at 4 and then at 7. It is so much fun to see their stages, I'm going to do some tests with my just turned 7 year old to see how she fairs. (maybe too with my 9 yo as a "control") It's not like they are being electrocuted. It's a developmental task that they use for evaluation.

it was a great honor to connect to you

So, I'm the four-year old in the video (it was taken 16 years ago), and I'd just like to say that neither me nor my sister were 'subjected' to anything, I remember it being a lot of fun... there was cheese and jokes involved! And my mother is a college professor--it doesn't get much more professional than that. And, of course my sister came across as smarter than me, she's three years older! All that being said, I hope you all enjoy this video and learn something from it.

@Reelisst i enjoy ur skirt ;)

[fisch519]

This 7-year old is making the younger sibling look so bad. lol

[readytotakeflight]

@fisch519 Of course because they are at two different cognitive levels.

[DrAnnWallace]

I could not have asked for a better example of conservation to share with my early childhood math methods students. THANK YOU!

[vaitality22]

forgot to add-the 7 year old is pretty smart.

[vaitality22]

Poor kids!

It sucks that their mother subjects them to this crap. This should be left to pros...

[MasterofFace]

If you watched all the way through you would notice she mentions to her kids that they should say goodbye to her students. Plus what difference does profession play when the tests are all the same. I do not hold that degree, but I could do that experiment, and end with the same results of Piaget.

[SASCYclaire]

i got to wath this vedio because this related to my course,,, anyway, the vedio looks very intrsting and on how the different stages of child answer and reasons out the Q being asked,,, its soo funny,,,,

Bonjour, je suis vraiment déçu que ce film vidéo soit en Anglais, car je trouve ces thèmes très intéressants mais je ne comprends rien. En tout cas c'est la même chose pour les autres vidéos qui se trouvent sur le site internet comme par exemple : la vidéo de Mr Jean Piaget. Cest dommage que je sois privée de telle connaissance intellectuelle, compétence de ces intervenants et que je ne profite pas de leur expérience. Jespère que vous corrigerez cette injustice. Merci Hourya

[Abduallah1990]

Till what age does a child has this perception? Is it till 6?

[crazypianolady]

A child acquires conservation during the concrete operation stage which is at ages of 7-11.

[Mthaman]

He's caught on to what it's about, gives the right answer.

[mohdhebili]

good one really ........

[kimroxursox]

Great job but maybe next time you should test them individually as they could have distracting each other and peer pressure may have occured. But good study. Very interesting!
