Abstract

This study aimed to clarify the developmental course of self–other overlap from mid-childhood to late adolescence. Results showed that the development of self–other overlap varied across relationship type: whereas self–stranger overlap increased, overlap with mother, father, friend, and classmate all decreased, with that for parents decreasing most.
