In Defense of Piaget's Theory: A Reply to 10 Common Criticisms.
Lourenco, Orlando; Machado, Armando
Psychological Review, v103 n1 p143-64 Jan 1996
This study attempts to rebut criticisms of the developmental theories of Jean Piaget by showing that most criticisms derive from misinterpretation and forget the dialectical, constructivist, and developmental nature of Piaget's work. Important aspects of Piaget's theory have not been assimilated by developmental psychologists. (SLD)
