Abstract

This study aims to imitate Piaget’s conservation tasks to investigate the ability to conserve in the pre-operational, concrete-operational and formal operational stage, and to test the validity of his theory. Results are that children are unable to conserve before the concrete operational stage and that conservation abilities increases with age.
