Detailed explanation-1: -Equilibriation. Piaget also believed that as children learn, they strike a balance between the use of assimilation and accommodation. This process, known as equilibration, allows children to find a balance between applying their existing knowledge and adapting their behavior to new information.
Detailed explanation-2: -Piaget argued that cognitive and intellectual development happens through a process of adaptation. That is, children learn by adjusting to the world. They do this through assimilation, accommodation and equilibration.
Detailed explanation-3: -Piaget thought of these as processes–assimilating and accommodating knowledge–as both interactive (one affecting the other) and capable of overlapping.
Detailed explanation-4: -The mind achieves a balance between assimilation and accommodation through what Piaget called “equilibration.” The mind organizes itself and achieves balance beginning in infancy and throughout the lifespan.
Detailed explanation-5: -Psychologist Jean Piaget defined accommodation as the cognitive process of revising existing cognitive schemas, perceptions, and understanding so that new information can be incorporated. This happens when the existing schema (knowledge) does not work, and needs to be changed to deal with a new object or situation.
