I enjoyed how you applied the self-discrepancy theory to the experience of college sophomores, Alexis. Placing the theory in the context of a student’s experience really illustrated the theory well!
This was a great infographic! Very visually appealing as well as informative. It was also super interesting to read as a college student. I had also never heard of the ought self, or at least didn’t know that was the term in psychology used for it. Good job!
