Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Piaget argued that mental representation, the ability to create mental symbols or pictures of objects and events, is the foundation for later cognitive development. As children develop mental representations, they can begin to categorize objects and events based on shared features and characteristics. Object permanence (A) and deferred imitation (B) are important milestones in early cognitive development, but they do not directly relate to categorization. Hindsight bias (D) is a cognitive bias that occurs in adults and has no relevance to toddlerhood.
