Substage 5: no more a-not-b errors, still problem invisible displacement: displaced object but didn"t see the person relocating object, they don"t search a, b or c if there"s a hidden object to be searched. Don"t show any knowledge of deduction when searching. Substage 6 success: can form mental images, and can perfect all skills that they lacked from substages above, no object perm until stage 6. Complexity of tasks for kids in sensorimotor stage so need to make them more simple: imitation. Hasn"t thought of the other factor that they need motor abilities. Meltzoff and moore study: use model to make certain faces at babies and record their faces. Recordings were given to judges (research assistants who are blinded). Successful imitation if baby makes same face as model.
