CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND PEDAGOGY / ~mb {dH$mg d {ejmemñÌ 
Directions : Answer the following questions by 
selecting the correct/most appropriate option. 
1. According to Piaget, the four qualitatively 
different stages : 
(1) are dependent upon the genetic codes of 
the children.  
(2) represent universal patterns of 
development of children. 
(3) illustrate that children’s minds are 
miniature adult minds. 
(4) vary vastly across the various cultures in 
the world. 
2. Lev Vygotsky believed that development : 
(1) results directly from maturation. 
(2) results directly from social interaction. 
(3) is an unfolding of genetic programming. 
(4) is discontinuous in nature. 
3. Which of the following is a limitation of 
Piaget’s theory of cognitive development ? 
(1) It does not account for the role of 
biological factors in cognitive 
development. 
(2) It does not account for the influence of 
culture and social factors on cognitive 
development. 
(3) It does not account for individual 
differences in cognitive development. 
(4) It overemphasizes the role of language in 
cognitive development. 
4. Read the following statements and choose the 
correct option : 
 Assertion (A) : 
Every year Lata, a Class VII teacher invites a 
female maths professor and a male nurse to 
her class to discuss careers in these fields.  
Reason (R) :  
Gender differences are innate and not 
acquired through society. 
(1) Both (A) and (R) are false. 
(2) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the 
correct explanation of (A).   
(3) Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not 
the correct explanation of (A). 
(4) (A) is true, but (R) is false.

development of children. 
(3) illustrate that children’s minds are 
miniature adult minds. 
(4) vary vastly across the various cultures in 
the world. 
2. Lev Vygotsky believed that development : 
(1) results directly from maturation. 
(2) results directly from social interaction. 
(3) is an unfolding of genetic programming. 
(4) is discontinuous in nature. 
3. Which of the following is a limitation of 
Piaget’s theory of cognitive development ? 
(1) It does not account for the role of 
biological factors in cognitive 
development. 
(2) It does not account for the influence of 
culture and social factors on cognitive 
development. 
(3) It does not account for individual 
differences in cognitive development. 
(4) It overemphasizes the role of language in 
cognitive development. 
4. Read the following statements and choose the

 Assertion (A) : 
Every year Lata, a Class VII teacher invites a 
female maths professor and a male nurse to 
her class to discuss careers in these fields.  
Reason (R) :  
Gender differences are innate and not 
acquired through society. 
(1) Both (A) and (R) are false. 
(2) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the 
correct explanation of (A).   
(3) Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not
