Ten-year-old stephanie knows that she can easily trick her 4-year-old brother, aaron, into accepting fewer pieces of candy. all she has to do is spread the pieces of candy out into two rows. the first row contains 10 pieces of candy spaced closely together and the second row contains 8 pieces of candy spaced far apart. aaron always chooses the row that contains the 8 pieces of candy. aaron reasons that it looks like it has more, so it must be so. he does this even though he knows that 10 is greater than 8. according to piaget, aaron's problem stems from:

Aaron's problem stem from centration

Explanation:

Centration occurs when a child focuses on one aspect of what they are dealing with and neglect other probable aspect of that situation.

This occurs in the preoperational stage where the child is not able to think logically or separate different ideas about certain situations.

Piaget suggest that because the child may be too focused on themselves and they can not think systematically(egocentrism) this may cause centration.

The child at this age is not able to decenter , to think about various apsect of a situation simultaneously

Aaron is not able to distinguish that the reason 8 sweets look like they are many of them is because they have been spaced far apart , he still can't record that in his mind the only thing he is able to think about is they look too many in his eyes.
