Abstract | Examines development of representational thought from the perspective of Jean Mandler's image-schema theory and an action-theoretical approach derived from Piaget's theory. Concludes that empirical findings fail to support hypotheses of early onset, and that representational development is more adequately interpreted within the context of an action-theoretical approach. Examines the role of divergent meta-theoretical assumptions in understanding mental representation development. (Author) |
