In the preceding chapters we have outlined the course of visual self recognition over the first few years of life. Using a variety of procedures, measures, and representational forms, we have seen that self recognition does occur in the first two years of life, prior to the onset of language. However, a number of issues still need to be considered, including the differences between representational forms, the differences between measures of self recognition, the criteria for self recognition, and individual differences in self recognition. The present chapter addresses all these issues.
