Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Juan's belief that he is unique and destined for greatness is an example of a personal fable, which is a component of adolescent egocentrism. This involves the belief that one's experiences, thoughts, and emotions are unique from others and that they are invincible and immune to common limitations and difficulties. Option A, postformal operations and option D, centration, are not applicable to this scenario. Option B, an imaginary audience, is also a component of adolescent egocentrism but does not fit the description given in the scenario.
