b. he misjudged children's capabilities because of his ill-defined criteria for success.
c. he suggested that preoperational children's abilities were much more advanced than they really are.
d. the age of his subjects often did not correspond to the cognitive stage he was attempting to describe.
Question 2
Extrapolating from the criticisms of Piaget's work, it might be reasonable to conclude that

b. since some of his tasks were meaningless and confusing, Piaget may have underestimated children's abilities.
c. the concrete-operational child has little understanding of the principle of conservation.
