ROBBIE CASE

http://study.com/academy/lesson/robbie-cases-theory-of-development-neopiagetian-perspective.html
The neo-Piagetian theories aim to correct one or more of the following
weaknesses in Piaget's theory:
Piaget's developmental stage theory proposes that people develop
through various stages of cognitive development, but his theory does
not sufficiently explain why development from stage to stage occurs.
Piaget's theory does not sufficiently explain individual differences in
cognitive development. That is, the theory does not account for the
fact that some individuals move from stage to stage faster than other
individuals.
The very idea of universal stages of cognitive development is incorrect.
Research shows that the functioning of a person at a given age may be
so variable from domain to domain (such as the understanding of
social, mathematical, or spatial concepts), that it is not possible to
place the person in a single stage.
To correct these weaknesses of Piaget's theory, various researchers, who are
known as neo-Piagetian theorists, produced models of cognitive
development that integrate concepts from Piaget's theory with newer
concepts from cognitive psychology and differential psychology.
