Research has demonstrated that very young infants can dis-criminate between visual events that are physically impossible versus possible. These findings suggest that infants have knowl-edge of physical laws concern-ing solidity and continuity. However, research with 2-year-olds has shown that they cannot solve simple problems involving search for a hidden object, even though these problems require the same knowledge. These apparently inconsistent find-ings raise questions about the interpretation of both data sets. This discrepancy may be re-solved by examining differ-ences in task demands
