  2. Conservation (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_(psychology)

    Conservation of mass and length occurs around age 7, conservation of weight around age 9, and conservation of volume around 11. [3] [5] Piaget's studies of conservation led him to observe the stages which children pass through when gaining the ability to conserve. In the first stage, children do not yet have the ability to conserve.

  3. Piaget's theory of cognitive development - Wikipedia

    Piaget's operativity is considered to be prior to, and ultimately provides the foundation for, everyday learning, [12] much like fluid ability's relation to crystallized intelligence. [86] Piaget's theory also aligns with another psychometric theory, namely the psychometric theory of g, general intelligence. Piaget designed a number of tasks to ...

    The water-level task is an experiment in developmental and cognitive psychology [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] developed by Jean Piaget and Bärbel Inhelder. [6] [1] The ...

  9. Fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_dynamics

    Three conservation laws are used to solve fluid dynamics problems, and may be written in integral or differential form. The conservation laws may be applied to a region of the flow called a control volume. A control volume is a discrete volume in space through which fluid is assumed to flow.
