Assignment 1
Questions, answers and in depth explanations
A concrete operational child
a. Can think hypothetically and deductively
b. has difficulty with future events
c. can organize things into categories
d. can solve abstract problems in a logical way
A concrete operational child is in the third stage of Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive
development, which typically occurs between the ages of 7 to 11 years old. During this stage,
children can organize objects into categories based on common characteristics, such as size,
shape, or color. They can also understand concepts such as number, time, and distance, but
they still have difficulty with abstract and hypothetical thinking. Therefore, options a, b, and d
are not correct for describing a concrete operational child.
A correlation study indicates that teachers' interest in teaching and the amount of the
day their students are engaged in learning correlate at +0.46. This coefficient would
indicate that
a. as teacher interest decreases, engaged time increases.
b. interest in teaching leads to a large increase in engaged time.
c. as teacher interest increases, engaged time tends to increase.
d. there is virtually NO relationship between the two variables.
A correlation coefficient of +0.46 indicates a moderate positive correlation between teachers'
interest in teaching and the amount of time their students are engaged in learning. A
positive correlation means that as one variable increases, the other variable tends to increase
as well. Therefore, as teachers' interest in teaching increases, their students' engaged time
tends to increase. Option b is incorrect because the coefficient only indicates a moderate
relationship, not a large increase. Option a is incorrect because the correlation is positive, so
as teacher interest decreases, engaged time is expected to decrease. Option d is incorrect
because a correlation coefficient of +0.46 indicates a relationship between the two variables,
although it is not a perfect correlation.
