Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Research has produced the surprising finding that introspection often interferes with
our self-knowledge, yet this negative effect does not always occur. Research by
Simine Vazire on the Self-Other Knowledge Asymmetry model shows that we do
know ourselves well when it comes to knowledge about relatively non-evaluative, and
thus non-threatening, characteristics that are internal and hard to observe. In contrast,
introspection about the self that is evaluative in nature (and thus potentially threatening)
or deals with traits that are external and easy to observe does not tend to produce
accurate self-knowledge.
