egocentric processing

Egocentric processing is the way our brain perceives and interprets the world from our personal perspective. It involves understanding objects, spaces, and other people's actions relative to our own position and viewpoint. This mental process helps us navigate daily life by keeping track of where things are around us and how they relate to us. While egocentric processing is essential for social interaction and spatial awareness, it can sometimes lead to biases, such as assuming others see and experience the world the same way we do.
