Discussion
Assertion (A) : Self-concept is an image of a person. It is the way one perceives oneself; one's abilities and limitations.
Reason (R) : Self-concept is the understanding of the self, in comparison to the past self, without social comparison.
Codes :
Answer: C
(A) is correct and (R) is wrong. Self-concept is the image a person has of herself or himself, including perceived abilities and limitations, so (A) is a fair definition.
(R) is wrong because self-concept is built up through comparison with others as well as with one's past self; social comparison is a main source of it. The claim that it is formed 'without social comparison' therefore fails, and the options that make (R) correct are wrong.
