Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Priscilla's negative self-perception after the break-up suggests a decrease in her self-esteem, which refers to an individual's overall sense of self-worth and value. Self-concept refers to an individual's perception of themselves in various domains, such as physical appearance, personality, and interests. Self-reflexiveness and self-consciousness are related concepts that involve an individual's awareness of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in relation to themselves and others, but they do not necessarily indicate a decrease in self-worth.
