What is the clinical method used by Jean Piaget in his research ?
Answer: C
The key gives a case study of individual child as Piaget's clinical method.
Piaget's clinical method was a flexible, individual interview: he presented one child at a time with a task or question and followed up each answer with further questions to uncover the reasoning behind it. Because it studies each child's thinking in depth, the option describing an individual case study is the closest of those given.
A standardized questionnaire asks every child the same fixed questions, the opposite of Piaget's flexible probing, and an open-ended questionnaire is still a written instrument without follow-up questions. The method was called clinical after psychiatric interviewing, but it was not carried out on children in a psychiatric clinic.
