Abstract: What characterizes a person is proposed to be self-consciousness and organized subjectivity, the latter being the specific domain of psychology. This hypothesis is consistent with an evolutionary epistemological approach that considers cognitive variables in primates-subjectivity, intersubjectivity, and attachment-as the seed that gives birth to the human person when Homo sapiens sapiens lives within language.
