Day after day, Raymond's history teacher lectures about the subject matter in a dry, unengaging manner and expects students simply to sit quietly and take notes. To make class a little more exciting for himself and the students sitting near him, Raymond often draws cartoon faces on the tips of his fingers and performs little finger-puppet shows at his desk.

b. reducing cognitive dissonance.
c. reflecting a high need for self-worth.
d. enabling him to achieve self-actualization.
