Answer to Question 1

The personal fable is a part of adolescent egocentrism. The personal fable is the belief that one's thoughts and emotions are special and unique. IT also refers to the common adolescent belief that they are invulnerable, like Superman or Superwomen and that bad things won't happen to them. This helps to account for students engaging in risky behaviors. Adolescents are more likely than their parents to minimize their assessment of risky situations.
