Six-month-old Aisen is playing on his back. He accidentally grabs a toy when his hand touches a toy. He likes the noise that it makes, so he grabs the toy again and tries to shake the toy. According to Piaget, what substage of the sensorimotor stage is Aisen experiencing? 1: simple reflexes 2: first habits and primary circular reactions 3: secondary circular reactions 4: coordination of secondary schemas

Explanation:

Secondary circular reactions

Substages of the sensorimotor stage

Piaget divided the sensorimotor period into six different substages that involve specific developmental milestones.

Secondary circular reactions

From 4 to 8 months of age, they begin to use objects to learn about the world. This process generally begins by accident, but as your baby starts to enjoy their ability to make things happen, they'll continue these activities again and again.

They might throw or drop a toy, shake a rattle, or bang objects together to make delightful (at least to them) sounds. This enables them to make more sounds on their own. For example, they'll laugh, make speech-like sounds, and use sound to express happiness, excitement, or unhappiness. Six - month Aisen is at this substage of the sensorimotor stage
