Byron is planning to ask his parents if he can borrow their car on Friday night. He is thinking both
about all the possible reasons they might bring up for not letting him use the car and of a logical reply to
each of these possible objections. Based on Piaget's model of cognitive development, Byron's thought
processes illustrate
the use of formal operational thought

the use of formal operational thought

Explanation:The formal operational stage is the fourth and final stage of Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development. It begins at approximately age 12 and lasts into adulthood. At this point in development, thinking becomes much more sophisticated and advanced.

Additionally, while younger children solve problems through trial and error, adolescents demonstrate hypothetical-deductive reasoning, which is developing hypotheses based on what might logically occur. They are able to think about all the possibilities in a situation beforehand, and then test them systematically (Crain, 2005). Now they are able to engage in true scientific thinking.

The formal operational thought

Explanation:

Formal operational thought can be defined as the way in which a person thinks and begin to form a conclusion about what they have thought concerning a situation in their mind without actually knowing what the outcome of that situation will be.

A person with formal operational thought personality will often think in an abstract and logical ways by always manipulating ideas they have in their head or mind without knowing what the result will be if they say or tender the issue due to the way they reason and make conclusion, just as in the case of Bryon.

Although this type of thought often begin when such person is around 12 years of age in which it do last into adulthood.

Therefore Bryon thought processes illustrate
