Find the Candy
Video Summary
In this clip, a behavioral therapist works with Leighdionne on object permanence, the ability to recognize that an object remains in the world even when the child cannot see it. The therapy session also targets Leighdionne's ability to sustain attention and track objects with her eyes, as she must focus and follow the examiner's movement in order to find her reward, a hidden piece of candy.
