Describe three barriers to logical thought likely to be found in children who are in Piaget's preoperational stage
What will be an ideal response?
The three barriers are the ability to focus on only one element or property at a time (perceptual centration), the inability to mentally reverse a sequence of events (irreversibility), and both the inability to take on the view of another person and the belief that the world revolves around oneself (egocentrism).

What can we conclude about the main effect of the group variable?
An experiment was conducted to see how people with eating disorders differ in their
need to exert control in different domains. Participants were classified as not having an
eating disorder (control), as having anorexia nervosa (anorexic), or as having bulimia
nervosa (bulimia). Each participant underwent an experiment that indicated how much
they felt the need to exert control in three domains: eating, friendships and the physical
world (this final category was a control domain in which the need to have control over
things like gravity or the weather was assessed). So all participants gave three
responses in the form of a mean reaction time; a low reaction time meant that the
person did feel the need to exert control in that domain. The variables have been
labelled as group (control, anorexic, or bulimic) and domain (food, friends or physics).
The R output from an analysis is shown below and the next two questions relate to this
output.
a. People with eating disorders need to exert more control over different
domains of their life, F(2, 27) = 0.93, p < .05.
b. When ignoring the type of domain, people who differ with regard to eating
disorders did not significantly differ in their need to exert control, F(2, 27) =
0.93, p > .05.
c. People with eating disorders significantly differ in their need to exert control
over food, F(2, 27) = 0.93, p > .05
d. People with eating disorders need to exert significantly more control over
different domains of their life than people without eating disorders, F(1, 27) =
2029.76, p < .001.
