Therefore, egocentrism is found across the life span : in infancy early childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. 23. It can go beyond egocentrism and that is where it becomes, in my opinion, a human being. 24. As mentioned earlier, these sentiments are the basis of another feature of adolescent egocentrism : the imaginary audience. 25. Adolescent egocentrism and personal fable immensely affect the development of self-esteem and self-compassion during adolescence. 26.

Piaget claimed that egocentrism , a common element responsible for preoperational children s unsystematic thinking, was causal to centration. 29. Elkind s work on egocentrism was in a sense an expansion and further development of Piagetian theories on the subject. 30. His egocentrism , petulance, pettiness and moodiness have been sources of aggravation for countless teammates and front-office staffers.
