An infant who has developed object permanence...

• is attached to specific objects, such as a blanket.
• will see all objects as being the same.
• knows that an object, such as a rattle, exists even if it is not in view.
• cries when a wanted object is taken away.

Four-year-old Jennifer mistakenly believes that her mother would like to receive a toy doll as a Christmas present. This best illustrates Piaget's concept of:

• accommodation
• attachment
• object permanence
• egocentricism

The cognitive ability to be able to recognize that quantities remain the same when two glasses of water are sitting beside each other, and one is poured into a taller glass.

• Irreversibility
• Centration
• Conservation
• Object Permanence 

What did the monkeys do when they were frightened by a loud noise

• Hide in the corner of the cage

• Shriek at the noise

• Run to the cloth mother

• Run to the wire mother

What conclusion can we draw from Harlow's research

• The importance of food

• Monkeys are better at socializing when they come out the cage

• Contact comfort is the most important factor when forming attachment

• Contact is equally as important as food when forming an attachment

Which of these best describes a SECURE attachment?

• Young children cling to their parent when they are in a new place
• Young children are allowed to do whatever they want to
• Young children never cry, even when punished
• Young children may cry with they are left, but be happy when their caregiver returns

Children, who in infancy formed secure attachments to their parents, are more likely than other children to:

• Prefer the company of adults to that of other children
• Become permissive parents
• Show a high level of social competence
• Be less achievement oriented
