Question

Jack (4-year-old) believes that it is his fault that his father left the family. This incident reflects what kind of reasoning?

Answer 1

Egocentric reasoning.

Step-by-step explanation:

This incident reflects egocentric reasoning. Jack, 4-yers-old, is in the pre-operational stage. He sees everything that happens around him as caused by him. Either good things or bad things relate to what he does. He sees everything through his point of view. He cannot see what happens from another person's point of view.
