Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
According to Piaget, a child will first understand OBJECT PERMANENCE during which stage?
A
sensorimotor
B
preoperational
C
concrete operational
D
formal operational
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The preoperational stage (2–7 years) During this stage, children build on object permanence and continue to develop abstract mental processes. This means they can think about things beyond the physical world, such as things that happened in the past.

Detailed explanation-2: -When Does Object Permanence Occur? Research by Jean Piaget suggests object permanence develops when a baby is around eight months old. According to Piaget’s stages of development, object permanence is the main goal for the sensorimotor stage.

Detailed explanation-3: -The star of the stage: Object permanence This developmental milestone is a primary goal of the sensorimotor stage. It’s your child’s ability to understand that objects and people continue to exist even when they can’t see them. It’s when your child starts to realize the things-and people, like you!

Detailed explanation-4: -Coordination Tertiary Circular Reactions (18 to 24 months) The final substage of sensorimotor development results in the full development of object permanence, and it is called coordination of tertiary reactions. At this substage, children can imagine more complex scenarios.

Detailed explanation-5: -Object permanence describes a child’s ability to know that objects continue to exist even though they can no longer be seen or heard.
