Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Identity is the most neutral of the self-perceptions. It is a descriptive, non-evaluative picture of oneself. An example of identity is I am a big fan of classical music. Self-esteem is frequently thought of as a person's sense of self-worth. It is reflected by the global evaluative judgment that one makes of oneself that indicates how one feels about that judgment. A person with positive self-esteem may say, for example, I am perfectly happy with myself the way I am. Self-concept results from the evaluative judgments people make of themselves in specific domains. A person who says, I never know what to say to other people at social affairs is expressing a weak self-concept for interpersonal relationships. Self-efficacy is the most specific of the three. It refers to how capable people believe they are to understand a particular subject or carry out a specific task. Someone who says, I'll never understand why the stock market goes up and down is expressing a weak sense of self-efficacy for understanding the financial and economic factors that drive the stock market.
