Multiple Choice

Marini,of Brock University,and Case,of the University of Toronto,tested adolescents on two types of abstract reasoning problems.They found that two-thirds of the adolescents performed at the same reasoning level on the two tasks,while the other one-third performed at a more advanced level on one task.This finding:

• B)indicates,in agreement with Piaget's theory,that both assimilation and accommodation are processes in cognitive development.
• C)indicates,in agreement with Piaget's theory,that cognitive development changes qualitatively with age.
