Details

In psychology, egocentrism is defined as the incomplete differentiation of the self and the world, including other people and the tendency to perceive, understand and interpret the world in terms of the self. The term derives from the Greek and Latin / ego, meaning "I," "me," and "self". An egocentric person cannot fully empathize, i.e. "put himself in other peoples' shoes," and believes everyone sees what she/he sees (or that what he/she sees, in some way, exceeds what others see). It appears that this egocentric stance towards the world is present mostly in younger children. They are unable to separate their own beliefs, thoughts and ideas from others. For example, if a child sees that there is candy in a box, he assumes that someone else walking into the room also knows that there is candy in that box. He implicitly reasons that "since I know it, you should too". As stated previously this may be rooted in the limitations in the child's theory of mind skills. However, it does not mean that children are unable to put themselves in someone else's shoes.
