Bandura argued that once you start dividing the self into multiple components, there is no clear limit to how many different selves you could identify.

However, studies have shown that our conscious beliefs about our attitudes may not always align with our actual behavior, indicating that attitudes can sometimes be incorrect indications of how we will behave.
