- Abstract: Self-other discrimination and the ability of role taking are usually considered as conditions for the emission of empathic behavior by developmental psychologists. A video-recorded episode showing comforting behaviors among very young children in a low socio-economic class daycare center in Brazil is presented as evidence of the occurrence of this sort of behavior at an early age, when these abilities are not supposed to be present. The episode was possibly fostered by the low availability of adult care due to low adult-child natio in the daycare center. An eight-month old boy crawls towards a slightly older baby who had been crying for several minutes and pats him awkwardly, after wich the crying stops; there is an exchange of glances between the two boys and, after a few seconds, they start to play together. A detailed qualitative analysis of this sequence suggested some quesrions that were further examined in a sample of crying and other signs of distress and the use of semistereotyped gestures in comforting actions. Some questions raised by these data about the entogeny of empathic behavior are discussed.
