Placing a Child at Sensorimotor
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
A child who does not search for a fully hidden toy is placed at the sensorimotor stage, before object permanence.
Show
A blanket is drawn over a rattle the infant was reaching for, and the reaching stops.
Watch for
Looking-time methods detect earlier understanding than reaching tasks. The placement reflects the task used.
