Correct Answer - Option 2 : Imaginary audience

Imaginary audience is the part of adolescence as adolescent egocentrism includes a belief system carried by adolescents that makes them consider themselves special and unique.

Imaginary Audience: 

  • Adolescents often assume that everyone is focusing on, and thinking about, the same thing as they are thinking about – themselves.
  • No wonder they are self-conscious all the time! This self-consciousness emerging from their feeling that they are constantly being observed by others is referred to as the ‘imaginary audience’.
  • Adolescent egocentrism is also characterized by an imaginary audience with increased self-consciousness. They consider that their people around them especially peers observe their activities and may comment on them.
  • They are extremely conscious of what others think of them, their appearance, and everything related to themselves. This way they perceive themselves as seen by them contributing to the development of self-confidence.

Hence, it could be concluded that the feeling of an adolescent 'everyone noticed that I wore this shirt twice a week', is an example of Imaginary Audience.
