question 2 (2 points)
which may represent a correct chronological order in the development of reasoning in science, according to piaget?

concrete → transitional → formal
multiplicity → relativism → dualism
formal → transitional → concrete
dualism → relativism → multiplicity

Explanation:

For Question 1: Affective strategies relate to addressing biases and emotional/positional influences on thinking. Limiting sociocentricity (focus on one's own group's perspective as superior) targets an affective, bias-based barrier to critical thinking. The other options are cognitive strategies focused on thinking processes or information evaluation.
For Question 2: Piaget's theory of cognitive development outlines that reasoning progresses from concrete operational (focus on tangible objects/events) to transitional (bridge between concrete and abstract) to formal operational (abstract, scientific reasoning) stages. The other options either reverse the order or reference Perry's theory of intellectual development, not Piaget's.

Answer:

Question 1: limiting sociocentricity
Question 2: concrete → transitional → formal
