Recent evidence suggests that children master egocentrism and object permanence earlier than Piaget proposed, which suggests that his theory underestimates children's cognitive development in some areas. However, there is still debate about the extent to which Piaget's theory accurately describes cognitive development in children. Option A is incorrect because recent evidence suggests that infants are capable of more than Piaget originally believed. Option B is partially correct, as object permanence can be demonstrated earlier than Piaget proposed, but it is still not established at 1 month of age. Option D is incorrect because Piaget's qualitative-quantitative distinction is still considered relevant in discussions of cognitive development.
