Question

A researcher attempts to replicate studies 1 and 2 with a group of 5-year-olds by using simplified versions of the games. Which cognitive limitation is most likely to inhibit the participants’ performance on the dependent variables?

Answer 1

Egocentrism

Step-by-step explanation:

Egocentrism refers to an individual's inability to distinguish his/her personal behaviors and thought with other people's.

For most people, this ability will be fully developed by the age of 7.

When a groups of 5 years old are made to conduct a team based exercise like this, their performance will be heavily limited since they cannot understand the intention / point of view of other team members.
