Her behavior demonstrates the characteristic of preoperational thought known as irreversibility
Explanation:

In this stage children can verbalize thoughts but think intuitively rather than logically. The key development of this stage is learning to form internal representations.
Piaget argued that children are not capable of conservation during the preoperational stage because of three weaknesses in the way they think. He called these weaknesses centration, irreversibility, and egocentrism.
Irreversibility is the inability to mentally reverse an operation. Here Evelyin is fixated on the no longer existing spot.
