Unit 3 – Sensation and Perception
Topic 3.7
How does the principle of conservation from Piaget's theory apply to tactile perception?
The sense of touch develops in stages just like cognitive growth.
Children cannot accurately judge texture until age six or seven.
We understand that objects maintain their size despite changes in our touch perspective.
We only use one hand for sensory exploration until adolescence.
