Answer:

Secondary circular reaction

Explanation:

Secondary circular reaction: In psychology, the term "secondary circular reaction" is described as one of the different sub-stages of the very first stage of cognitive development theory i.e., sensorimotor stage and it was proposed by Jean Piaget. The given sub-stage starts from the age of four months and lasts through eight months of age.
