Egocentrism refers to the adolescent's self-centered focus and inability to perceive things from another person's point of view. The imaginary audience and personal fable are both examples of egocentrism. The imaginary audience involves the adolescent's belief that they are constantly being watched and evaluated by others. The personal fable involves the adolescent's belief that they are unique, special, and invulnerable to harm.
