Spatial Errors Made by Infants: Inadequate Spatial Cues or Evidence of Egocentrism?

Bremner, J. Gavin

British Journal of Psychology, 69 pt1, 77-84, Feb 78

Tests the egocentric hypothesis, i.e., if it can be shown that, given spatial cues, an infant searches at a position bearing an invariant relation to these cues, but with a varying egocentric position, then there would be strong evidence that his organization of space is not necessarily egocentric.
