Detailed explanation-1: -Object permanence involves understanding that items and people still exist even when you can’t see or hear them. This concept was discovered by child psychologist Jean Piaget and is an important milestone in a baby’s brain development.
Detailed explanation-2: -What Is Object Permanence? Object permanence is the concept that objects continue to exist even when they’re not in sight. Early on, babies don’t yet have the cognitive skills to understand that what they can’t see still exists.
Detailed explanation-3: -Object permanence describes a child’s ability to know that objects continue to exist even though they can no longer be seen or heard.
Detailed explanation-4: -Object permanence means knowing that an object still exists, even if it is hidden. It requires the ability to form a mental representation (i.e. a schema) of the object. For example, if you place a toy under a blanket, the child who has achieved object permanence knows it is there and can actively seek it.
Detailed explanation-5: -"Out of sight, out of mind” isn’t the same thing as object permanence. Many people with ADHD struggle with remembering simple tasks, like paying bills or responding to texts. This has been commonly attributed to the whole “out of sight, out of mind” ideology, which people correlate with the idea of object permanence.
