Generality
Self-centeredness is a psychic condition characterized by the tendency to see the world exclusively from one's own point of view, without leaving room for the opinions of others.
This "attitude can be considered a cognitive error, as it leads to a restriction of our perception, due to the fact that we can only see the world from our point of view. Self-centeredness can have negative consequences of varying intensity in the relational and social sphere. .
An extremely egocentric form of behavior can evolve towards more or less pathological forms of narcissism. In this case, a useful approach to overcome this attitude is psychotherapy.
Possible causes
All people tend to be more or less self-centered in their way of reasoning and evaluating the situations they face in the course of their life. In a certain sense, egocentrism can therefore be considered an absolutely normal phenomenon.
