I ended up having more B-mode statements than any other mode. The book says that, “[t]hose with more B-mode responses base their self-concept on group membership and institutional roles” (pg.136). It also says that if you give yourself more B-mode statements, then it is possible that C-mode is dominant while in the classroom. “C-mode responses see themselves as more independent and define themselves according to their individual actions and emotions rather than connections to others” (pg.136).…
