Aim: the purpose of this research was investigating the relationship between egocentrism and social adjustment among students. Method: For this purpose, 308 students (158 women and 150 men) of Payame Noor university were sampled by available categorized sampling. They were asked to complete Social Adjustment Questionnaire (1939) as well as Personal Fable and Imaginary Audience Questionnaire (1967) in order to evaluate their egocentrism. Then, the achieved data was analyzed by Pierson's conjunction coefficient and step by step multivariable regression. Findings: The results indicated that there is a meaningful and positive relationship between personal fable and social adjustment.

Introduction: the purpose of this research is the calculation primary reliability and validity personal fable and new imaginary audience scale to evaluate egocentrism among adults. Method: 308 students of payame noor university were sampled by sampling, volunteer They were asked to complete personal fable scale and new imaginary audience scale (1967) in order to evaluate egocentrism. Also, both Beck depression inventory form blend (1970) and zuckerman sensation seeking (1978) were used to determine concurrent validity. Achieved data was analyzed by Pierson's conjunction coefficient, cronbach’s Alpha, Guttmann split-half, and factorial analysis. Findings: Analyzing data indicated that there is correlation, indirect and meaningful between personal fable scale with depression (p’s Alpha 0/78 and the reliability of imaginary audience is achieved by cronbach’s Alpha 0/86 and the reliability of imaginary audience is achieved by Guttmann split-half 0/75, and then, by factorial analysis to personal fable scale was extracted 3 factors and to imaginary audience was extracted 11 factors. Conclusion: calculation primary personal fable scales and new imaginary audience are as reliability and validate tools/means in order to evaluate egocentrism among adults.
