perceptual development: visual object permanence and identity  

Definición

  • Two of our most basic cognitive capacities, and milestones in early cognitive development, are object permanence and object identity. Object permanence refers to the ability to understand that objects continue to exist even when perceptual contact is lost (e.g., recognizing that a favorite rattle still exists even when it is covered with a blanket).
