According to an information processing perspective, how can changes in processing capacity explain age differences in performance on the Piagetian conservation problems?
A) Relative to older children, younger children's lower processing capacity may make it
more difficult for them to think about two or more aspects of the problem (e.g., height and
width) at the same time.
B) Relative to older children, younger children's lower processing capacity may enable them
to more easily reverse certain operations.
C) Relative to older children, younger children are better able to mentally reverse operations
because they are "centered" on only one aspect of the problem at a time.
D) Relative to older children, younger children are better able to switch their attention back
and forth between two different aspects of the problem.
