Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Andy's desire to play for the college football team reflects his ideal self, which refers to the person he wants to be or the goals he wants to achieve. It is likely that being a part of the team is part of his desired identity and self-concept. The other options (separated self-schema, self-esteem, and actual self) do not directly reflect Andy's motivation to play for the football team.
