Piaget refers to the thought processes of the school age period as concrete operations.
Concrete operations involve logical thinking and an understanding of cause and effect.
The egocentric view of the preschool child is replaced by the ability to understand the point of view of another person. Between 6 and 12 years of age, children prefer friends of their own sex and usually prefer the company of their friends to that of their brothers and sisters.
