  • if you don't understand how these children can't understand then maybe you should take some more psychology classes. their young brains CAN'T understand it! read more piaget please. every human goes through this, you just probably can't remember. they're still learning about the world, for all they know it's entirely possible for the tallness of the glass to indicate more water. it's why small children are into magic, because they believe in the magic. to them, magic is entirely possible

  • politicians do this all the time.

  • what kind of education do you need in order to be the person testing the kids about the concepts?

  • @obsidianroselace Good one :D

  • How is the definition of conservation imply any sort of conserving of energy (CONSERVATION)??????????

  • so adorable!!!

  • @DAYTIME504 How does everything on Youtube always end up with people talking about race?

  • its so cool ! we just learened it in psychology class ! to see it its cool ! 

  • piagets stages are not perfect science, don't kid yourself.

    These kids CAN understand these concepts, but they need to have them explained. For example, if the first lady poured the water back into the other cup and said "see, look, it is actually the same amount, isn't that cool?" than the little girl would've understood

    its not that they are unable to comprehend the information, it is just that their brains use the most readily available information first (size and shape in most cases)

  • The second kid was impressive

  • @obsidianroselace Well said! :-)

  • @DAYTIME504 They put different age groups for comparison. The second girl, in my opinion, is at least one year older based on her language development and lack of baby fat. I don't think it has anything to do with ethnicity.
