Document Summary
Self: the combination of the physical and psychological attributes of a person that makes them unique. Social recognition: thinking that people display the thoughts, feelings, motives and behaviors of themselves and others. Anticipate the arrival of their own hands at mouth. Proprioceptive feedback: indications of our own bodies based on senses and receptors (hungry, tired, content ) Have personal agency: understand that they are partly responsible for the events that fascinate them. Self-concept: realize they are independent of other things and can find out who or what they are. Get better at recognizing visual representations of themselves and others. Rouge test: touch the red mark on their nose when looking at themselves in the mirror. Recognize themselves in photographs and use me or their own name to label. Not fully aware that the self is stable over time. Know that it is stable over time and that events that have happened recently can conflict the present.
