Lauren, a ninth-grade student, describes herself as a pretty good guitar player and an excellent math student who can't understand chemistry class. She says she is wild and extroverted with friends in her band, yet is shy and quiet at school. Lauren's self-description reflects:
a. the inability to integrate different aspects of her identity.
b. that she is atypical of most adolescents.
c. differential gender socialization.
d. the ability to recognize contradictions in her personality.

The correct answer is letter d. the ability to recognize contradictions in her personality.

Explanation:

From the description, we can safely conclude Lauren does not have a problem in understanding and recognizing her own contradictions. She does not try to define herself only as shy or only as extroverted, for instance. She knows she shows different traits when in different contexts. She accepts that those contradictions are a part of who she is, not regarding them as a sign of insecurity.
