Definitions like these raise operational questions. As observers, how can we tell whether a given individual m especially an infant m has one or another of these forms of self-knowledge? Let us take them one at a time. First, many recent experimental findings argue that infants are unlikely to have the kinds of experiences that establish a private self. Consider, for example, the problem that even 3-year-olds have in distinguishing reality from subjective appearance. They don't understand that an object which appears pink through tinted glass may in fact be white, or that what looks like a rock may just be a painted sponge (Flavell, Flavell, & Green, 1983).
