What would Piaget say most likely in this behavior is that the behavior that the child is showing means that it has the signs of means-end behavior and emerging object permanence. It is because in means end behavior, is a way of doing or showing a specific behavior in which could be expected or unexpected in which they carry out to achieve something they want or their goal. While the emerging object permanence is a way of having a belief that inanimate objects does exist. It could be seen above as the child continues the behavior because of his belief that the food will reappear, in the same time, he has the belief that the food will be produced because he thinks that it would exist with just the push of the button.
