Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Piaget,a child this age is in the preoperational stage of development.Children interpret objects and events not in terms of their general properties but in terms of their own relationships to them.This egocentrism does not allow children in this age group to put themselves in another's place.Selfishness,self-centredness,and preferring to play alone do not describe the concept of egocentricity.
