Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Possible selves are the images or visions we have of ourselves in potential roles, situations, or states in the future. They represent how we might see ourselves becoming, including our hopes, fears, goals, and threats. These are not necessarily tied to our current social roles or personality traits but are more about the different ways we can envision our future selves.
