This represents a return to / accomplishment/achievement of self-centered awareness at all levels Explanation: I believe that narcissism has no place in this in an EN version, since it is the psychological syndrome described in Liz' answer. True narcissism is a refined intellectual enterprise, and not of relevance for what is being described here; the narcissism inherent to child development has to do with the sense of self at both the physical and the psychological level, which is why this time I'd actually go for the literal translation "niveaux" [which one would otherwise avoid].

peer agreement (net): +1There is an enhanced sense of self at all levels Explanation: I agree with Dee, the word 'narcissism' has no place in this translation. 'Narcissism' definitely has a negative connotation in English: "Inordinate fascination with oneself; excessive self-love; vanity" (Webster's). I seriously doubt that these children have become inordinately self-centered just because they have recovered motor skills and regained contact with their own bodies. Perhaps an enhanced sense of self would do the trick. At least it's something positive! I don't think it's necessary to write 'resumption' or 'recovery'. That sounds like a literal translation of 'reprise' - and implies, at least to me, a TOTAL recovery. Is that the case with every single child that has been treated? Maybe that's going too far. The word 'reprise' can also be translated as 'to boost' or 'to enhance'. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2007-04-07 19:15:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Perhaps: "This results in enhanced self-awareness at all levels." |
