Describe Piaget's theory of intellectual development with special regard to the following: assimilation and accommodation, object concept in the sensorimotor stage, the symbolic function in the pre-operational stage, conservation in the concrete operational stage, and the use of the hypothetical-deductive method in the formal operational stage.
-Sensorimotor stage is the first stage in Piaget's theory. In this stage children are infants and start to play with toys and develop psychically. Pre-operational stage is the second stage in Piaget's theory. Children start to get more of a language spectrum and get more creative and imaginary. Concrete stage is the third stage in Piaget's theory. In this stage child start to mature and think logically. Formal stage is the fourth stage in Piaget's theory. In this stage you can fully think logically and use things you have learned.

Describe the difference between sensation and perception.
- Sensation is a mental process that results from the immediate external stimulation of a sense organ. Perception is the ability to hear, see, or be aware of something through the senses. Both sensation and perception are very similar to each other but sensation is actually gathering the information and perception is actually recognizing the information and putting it in our brains.
Picture on shows the 5 senses and picture 2 shows perception and what people precieve of things.

Describe the role that expectation and motivation have in perception.
-The role that expectation has on perception is that we usually just expect something so we do not pay attention to the small details. There is 6 needs that help motivation, bodily needs, reward and punishment, emotional connoation, individual values, personality, and the value of the object. All of these things motivate us and change how we previeve things.

Summarize the Gestalt principles of perception.
-Similarity is when things share similar things such as shape or size. Proximity is when things that are closer together then they will appear to belong with each other. Continuity is when we precieve things to be contineous

Explain the processes of depth perception and size constancy.
- Depth perception is when you are able to judge the distance of objects are to you. Because of this we are able to see in 3-d. Binocular cues are depth cues and are precieved in 3-d monocular cues are preceived in 2-d. Size consitency is when the size of an object will stay the same no matter if the lighting, rotation, distance changes. This skill appears in infants that are only a couple weeks old.
