Detailed Explanation
Detailed Explanation
According to Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development, Egocentrism is a key characteristic of the Pre-operational Stage (2 to 7 years), where the child believes that others view and experience the world from their exact perspective.
- Option B is incorrect: Attributing life to non-living objects is called Animism, not Conservation.
- Option C is incorrect: Children in this stage lack Irreversibility, meaning they cannot mentally reverse a sequence of events.
- Option D is incorrect: Children in this stage are capable of symbolic play, while abstract thinking characterizes the Formal Operational Stage (11+ years).
