An alternative explanation to the one Piaget offered for the A not B error that was discussed in class is that

a. the baby may incorrectly assume that if action A causes action B, it means that action B causes action A
b. the experimenter failed to hide the object in position A enough times for the baby to remember that location
c. the baby may be confused about which of the two objects the researcher is asking him or her to search for
d. the baby may know where the object is but be too distracted by emotions or other things to search effectively
