The results of the experiment were valuable in addressing the hypothesis under study. However, future investigations may need to adopt techniques that improve upon those used here. 5a. Now in figure 2. the time between steps 4 and 5 was 1 sec, that means the infants had 1 second to absorb information and answer. Now if we were to increase that time to 10 sec that would mean the infants would have a longer time to absorb information and answer which could lead to a different, more similar staring time for both possible and impossible outcomes as shown in figure 3. Nonetheless both figures would still be correct considering the different reactions there would be. 5b. The results in figure 3. could explain a Piagetian hypothesis because it shows that after ten seconds the infants could not remember the objects behind the cover showing there is a lack of object permanence.
