Question

Three-year-old Dawn is given a brownie. She gets upset and says that she wants "more." So her father cuts the brownie into two pieces, and now Dawn is happier. Dawn's thinking shows that she has not yet learned to do what?

Answer 1

Conserve

Explanation :

Jon has not learned to conserve according to the theory of jean Piaget.

Conservation in his theory refers to a logical thinking ability that is underdeveloped in the preoperational stage of development which allows a person to understand/determine that an amount or quantity of something will not change even though the container, shape or size of that thing changes. ,

Answer 2

Conserve

Step-by-step explanation:

Conservation refers to a critical reasoning capacity that in children during the preoperative stage of their development, but evolves in the concrete operational stage, it's a period in which the child can recognize that altering the shape of a material or entity does not alter its number, total volume or weight.

Dawn couldn't recognize the difference in the brownie after her father had cuted it, she tells it's now bigger and she is happier. Dawn's thinking shows that she has not yet learned to CONSERVE and recognize when things are changed and altered.

Conservation relates to a rational thinking ability which, according to psychologist Jean Piaget, allows a individual to decide that a certain amount will remain the same despite modification of the container, shape or apparent size.
