Iconic stage of Bruner is similar to which stage of Piaget's cognitive development?
- AConcrete-operational stage
- BSensory-motor stage
- CFormal operational stage
- DPre-operational stage
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Jerome Bruner proposed three modes of cognitive representation:
Enactive stage (action-based) ≈ Piaget's Sensory-motor stage.
Iconic stage (image-based/visual memory) ≈ Piaget's Pre-operational stage (where children think conceptually but rely on perceptual visual schemas).
Symbolic stage (language/abstract symbols based) ≈ Piaget's Concrete & Formal operational stages.
