Answer 1

True.    Piaget's theories rely on information about the individual, biology and experience, while Vygotsy's rely on cultural processes. Piaget strongly advocated that intelligence as an acquired trait as a result of strong environment interaction and biological maturation. Vygotsy's theory was built on the fact that intelligence developed due to sociocultural factors.

True. Research suggests that utilizing baby talk might help language development. The infant directed speech or " baby talk" is easily recognizable. It is melodic and emotionally charged. These factors help the baby to identify the emotions, which might inturn might be factor in language development.

True. Children repeatedly ask for feedback on their performance only when they are insecure and being abused. This might be because of continous negative feedback hence creating insecutiry wihthin the children that they might not be able to live upto the expectation of their parents or elders. This is also another form of abuse, since the emotions and feelings of the children are not taken into consideration. This inturn might be a reason for creating an environment not viable for the emotional and cognitive development of the child.
