Grownups know that people and objects are solid.At the movies, we know that if we reach out to touch Tom Crui, all we will feel is air.But does a baby have this understanding?
To e whether babies know objects are solid.Bower designed a method for projecting an optical illusion(视觉影像)of a hanging ball.His plan was to first to give babies a real ball, one they could be expected to show surprid in their faces and movements.All the 16 to 24weekold babies tested were surprid when they reached for the illusion and found that the ball was not there.
Grownups also have a n of object permanence.We know that if we put a box in a room and lock the door, the box will still be there when we come back.But does a baby realize that a ball that rolls under a chair does not disappear and go to nevernever land?

Experiments done by Bower suggest that babies develop a n of object permanence when they are about 18 weeks old.In his experiments, Bower ud a toy train that went behind a screen.When 16weekold and 22weekold babies watched the toy train disappear behind the left side of the screen, they looked to the right, expecting it to reappear.If the experiment took the train off the table and lifted the screen, all the babies emed surprid not to e the train.This ems to show that all the babies had a n of object permanence.But the cond part of the experiment showed that this was not really the ca.The rearcher substituted(替换) a ball for the train when it went behind the screen.The 22weekold babies emed surprid and looked back to the left side for the train.But the 16weekold babies did not em to notice the switch(更换)．Thus，the 16weekold babies emed to have a n of “something permanence，” while the 22weekold babies had a n of object permanence related to a particular object.
