Question

little andrea has just learned that robins are birds. she now sees a sparrow, points to it, and calls it a \bird\. according to jean piaget, andrea is showing the cognitive process of a assimilation b accommodation c habituation d object permanence

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In Piaget's cognitive development theory, assimilation is when new information (like a sparrow) is incorporated into an existing schema (the concept of "bird" from robins). Andrea uses her existing "bird" schema to classify the sparrow, so this is assimilation. Habituation is about reduced response to repeated stimuli, accommodation is changing schemas, and object permanence is about objects existing when unseen—none fit here.

Answer:

A. assimilation
