Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a class about Piaget's stages of cognitive development. The nurse should instruct that object permanence develops during which of the following stages?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Object permanence, the understanding that objects continue to exist even when they are out of sight, is a key concept in Piaget's sensorimotor stage. During this stage, which occurs from birth to around 2 years old, infants develop this ability through sensorial interactions and exploration. This milestone is crucial for the development of memory, mental representation, and problem-solving skills.
Choice A: Concrete operational stage focuses on logical thinking and conservation tasks, not object permanence.
Choice C: Formal operational stage involves abstract thinking, not related to object permanence.
Choice D: Preoperational stage involves symbolic thinking and egocentrism, not directly related to object permanence.
Therefore, the correct answer is B: Sensorimotor stage, as it aligns with the timing and developmental milestones associated with the acquisition of object permanence.
