Abstract
In this chapter, I review major cognitive/socioaffective correspondences in the work of Fischer and colleagues. First, I examine his account of the Oedipus situation. Then, I present his early work on particular correspondences between cognitive and affective development. The chapter moves to Harter’s account of self-development in terms of parallels with Fischer’s model.
