Purpose of the study was to determine whether a name for a toy affects an infant's attentional preference for a toy and whether this process is related to the infant's concept of subject permanence. (Authors)

Compensation as assessed by any one test or criterion used is more difficult than conservation. And, the understanding of the compensation principle, as manifested in verbal statements, continues to develop well after the age at which liquid conservation may be taken for granted. (Authors)
