Self-verification theory

[edit]

Hi Susanneh, please take a look at: Wikipedia:Citing sources to see how to put in references in the text. I did it for you in Self-verification theory. However, it felt a bit shakey because you wrote: "talks about this". Did she really write a text that fully backs up this content:

"Although self-verification strivings tend to stabilize people’s self-views, changes in self-views may still occur. Probably the most common source of change is set in motion when the social environment recognizes a significant change in a person’s age (e.g., when adolescents become adults), status (e.g., when students become teachers), or social role (e.g., when someone is convicted of a crime). Suddenly, the community may change the way that it treats the person. Eventually the target of such treatment will bring his or her self-view into accord with the new treatment."

- or did she write something that is just somewhat similar to the content? I hope I expressed my concerns in a clear way. With friendly regards, Lova Falk talk 11:39, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
