Answer:

The answer is functional fixedness.

Explanation:

Functional fixedness refers to the inability to use an object in a different way than usual. For example, if a person is looking for a pair of scissors to cut paper, he might <u>not</u> realise he can also use a utility knife or even a ruler.

Studies have shown that very young children do <u>not</u> present functional fixednesss. Instead, it appears around age seven, when children learn to use objects "properly".

Luden [163]
