Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: The infant has begun the third stage of sensorimotor development and is constructing the beginnings of concepts of objects separate from themselves. This stage is known as reproduction. This begins as empty repetition and develops into organized, goaldirected behavior. Piaget hypothesized that the concept of object permanence develops toward the end of the stage as infants purposefully search, either visually or manually, for interesting items.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: As infants develop a unique attachment to their mothers, they can develop an additional attachment to their primary caregivers in childcare settings.
