How do humans develop concepts?
Through this
project we want to develop a concrete theory in how children of various age
groups as stated in Piaget theory i.e. (Sensor motor stage,
Preoperational stage & Concrete operational stage) develops concepts
and effect of Instant learning. However, it was quite plain to Piaget that not
all children may pass through the stages at the exactly the same age. Also we acknowledge
that children could show at a given time the characteristics of more than one
of the stages above.
Our objective to testify using set of behavioral
experiments the three fundamental aspects of concept development:
·
Concepts
as mental representations, i.e. entities that exist in the brain;
·
Concepts
as abilities, peculiar to cognitive agents;
·
Concepts
as abstract objects, where these objects are the constituents of propositions that
immediate between thought, language, and referents.
Finally we aim to evaluate, Transitivity,
Perspective & Moral concepts among various age groups and effect of instant
learning in the process.
