Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The described behavior is known as the "imaginary audience" which is a term used to refer to adolescents' belief that others are as interested in them as they themselves are. This leads to attention-getting behavior, as they feel like they are constantly being watched and judged by their peers. The personal fable (A) refers to the belief that they are unique and special, and that their experiences are completely unlike anyone else's. Social comparison (B) is the tendency to compare oneself to others and to evaluate oneself based on others' performances or behaviors. Perspective thinking (D) refers to an individual's ability to understand and take into account multiple perspectives, which may develop during adolescence but is not directly related to the imaginary audience.
