TL;DR
The results of both studies indicate that embarrassment but not wariness was related to self-recognition.
Abstract
In each of 2 studies, the mirror-rouge technique was used to differentiate children into those who showed self-recognition and those who did not. In Study 1, 27 children (aged 9-24 months) were observed in 2 experimental situations thought to differentially elicit fear and embarrassment behaviors. In Study 2, 44 children (aged 22 months) were seen in the situations of Study 1 and 3 additional contexts thought to elicit embarrassment behavior. The results of both studies indicate that embarrassment but not wariness was related to self-recognition.

The results indicate the following age-related sequence of behavior before the mirror: the first prolonged and repeated reaction of an infant to his mirror image is that of a sociable “playmate” from about 6 through 12 months of age.

74 Citations1977Allan H. Schulman, Cheryl Kaplowitz
Analysis of videotaped records revealed that interest in viewing one's face did not vary with age among the 1- to 24-month-old subjects, suggesting that the infant observes the general configuration of the face for its intrinsic interest.

Conceptualizing shyness as anxious self-preoccupation enables specific predictions to be made about the shy person's reactions to evaluative social situations and points to ignorance about the role of attentional processes in social interaction.
