  placing a toe in a baby's hand and seeing how the baby responds to it.
  seeing if a baby can imitate a facial expression it has been shown.

  Most people believed that children understood objects the same way that
  adults do.
  Most researchers believed that infants and small children were incapable of
  thinking.
  Most researchers believed that infants first came into the world without any
  cognitive abilities at all.
  Most people believed that children's education should be left totally in the
  hands of teachers.

Question 5

Makesha is 8 months old. Research on object permanence would suggest that she
