Boeri Leandro De Brasi Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) self error ignorance introspection cognitive bias Knowledge of oneself is not easy to attain. Plato was aware of this and in this paper we aim to show that he suspected then, like psychologists know now, that one’s introspective capacity to attain knowledge of oneself is very much restricted and that we must rely on the other as a source of such knowledge. We further argue that, for Plato, this knowledge is not easily achieved given not only the shortcomings of the fi rst-person perspective but also the limitations of the third-person one. 2017 artículo científico 0716-498X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=65052869002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=650 Universum.
