Mrs. Pearson cut Judy's hot dog into eight pieces and Sylvia's into six pieces. Sylvia cried because she felt she wasn't getting as much hot dog as Judy. Piaget would say that Sylvia doesn't understand the principle of:a. object permanence.
b. object equivalence.
c. assimilation.
d. conservation.
e. accommodation.

D. The principle of conservation

Explanation:

According to the psychologist Jean Piaget., conservation is a logical thinking ability that allows a person to determine that a certain quantity will remain the same despite adjustments in the shape, contained, or apparent size.

Sylvia couldn't understand that it was still the same bulk quantity of hot dog, regardless of the fact that it was cut into six pieces rather than eight.

This mental ability is covered under the principle of conservation by Jean Piaget. Thus making the answer D.

Option A is wrong. This is because object permanence covers the child's ability to understand that objects still exist even if they are not visible. This is not the case here as the hot dogs were still very visible.

Option B is wrong. This is because object equivalence is a principle that is used to relate two objects together based on their similarities. This is not the case here as, Sylvia already knew that hers was still a hot dog. However, her problem was that she felt it was of a lesser quantity

Option C is wrong. This is because assimilation is a cognitive process that covers how we take in new information and relate them to the ones we already know. This is not the case discussed in the above problem. because Sylvia was not exposed to any new material.

Option E is wrong. This is because accommodation is a term also developed by psychologist Jean Piaget to describe what occurs when new information or experiences cause you to modify your existing schemas. This is also not the case as there was also no new material introduced in the problem above.

ludwig van beethoven (/ˈlʊdvɪɡ væn ˈbeɪt(h)oʊvən/ (about this soundlisten); german: [ˈluːtvɪç fan ˈbeːthoːfn̩] (about this soundlisten); baptised 17 december 1770[1] – 26 march 1827) was a german composer and pianist. a crucial figure in the transition between the classical and romantic eras in classical music, he remains one of the most recognized and influential of all composers. his best-known compositions include 9 symphonies; 5 piano concertos; 1 violin concerto; 32 piano sonatas; 16 string quartets; a mass, the missa solemnis; and an opera,

fidelio. his career as a composer is conventionally divided into early, middle, and late periods; the "early" period is typically seen to last until 1802, the "middle" period from 1802 to 1812, and the "late" period from 1812 to his death in 1827.

beethoven was born in bonn, then the capital of the electorate of cologne and part of the holy roman empire. he displayed his musical talents at an early age and was taught by his father johann van beethoven and composer and conductor christian gottlob neefe. at the age of 21 he moved to vienna, where he began studying composition with joseph haydn and gained a reputation as a virtuoso pianist. he lived in vienna until his death.

by his late 20s his hearing began to deteriorate and by the last decade of his life he was almost completely deaf. in 1811 he gave up conducting and performing in public but continued to compose; many of his most admired works come from these last 15 years of his life, commonly known as his "late" period.
