Discussion
Jean Piaget perceives __________ to be __________. Lev-Vygotsky believes __________ to be __________.
Answer: B
Piaget sees egocentric speech as a sign of cognitive immaturity; Vygotsky sees private speech as effective in self-regulation.
Piaget thought children's talk to themselves reflected their egocentrism, an inability to take another's perspective, which fades as they mature. Vygotsky reinterpreted the same speech as private speech, a tool children use to guide and plan their own actions, which later becomes silent inner speech.
The other options swap the two terms or attach each theorist to the other's interpretation.
