Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Luis is basing his self-worth on obtaining a particular role in the school play, which means that he has internalized conditions of worth. He believes that his girlfriend will only accept him if he gets a specific part. This mindset limits his sense of self and creates anxiety, as well as increasing the likelihood of losing his girlfriend's approval if he does not achieve the desired role.
