imaginary audience  

Définition

  • Originally used to represent the false belief that one is being watched and evaluated by others, David Elkind proposed that construction of an imaginary audience during early adolescence was a form of “adolescent egocentrism,” which he saw as a natural outgrowth of the transition to Piaget's formal-operational stage of cognitive development. Adolescent egocentrism is reduced as adolescents' cognitive capabilities become more refined and as more social experience is acquired.
