Answer: There are eight myths presented in the textbook for the student to choose from:

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Adolescents begin to experience objective self-awareness as they start to see themselves as the object of others attention. They use the views of significant others as a social mirror to form the basis of their own self-views. These are termed reflected appraisals as they internalize others evaluations of them. Adolescents seem to give more importance to significant others, such as family and friends. Cooley termed this the looking glass self. It is clear from this concept that adolescent identity is socially defined, to a great degree, and is derived from the definitions and standards of others in the realms of interpersonal relations, values, priorities, etc.
