Harre, Rom, Ed. – Oxford Review of Education, 1984
Research results reported in this special issue show that egocentricity and staging, both central ideas in the Piaget-Kohlberg account of human development, are myths. The appearance of egocentricity and staging can be accounted for by a subtle combination of ethnocentricity and the effects of inappropriate methodologies. (RM)

Shantz, Carolyn Uhlinger – 1984
Social and cognitive theories indicate that conflict plays an important role in an individual's psychological development.
