The personal fable is the adolescent's belief that he or she is highly special and unlike anyone else who has ever walked the earth. Colloquially, these individuals are known as "special snowflakes." In other words, the adolescent thinks that since others are so obviously fascinated by him (adolescent egocentrism), he must be a unique individual.
Unfortunately, the belief can have serious consequences.
In particular, the personal fable can cause a tween or teen to believe that nothing bad could possibly happen to someone as exceptional as herself. In other words, since she's so special, she must be invulnerable.
Some research has shown that belief in the personal fable and one's invulnerability is directly connected to common adolescent risk-taking behaviors, such as promiscuous or unprotected sex, use of alcohol or illicit drugs, as well as physically dangerous acts, such as driving without a license or driving recklessly or while intoxicated.
Belief in the personal fable should not be confused with having high self-esteem. Tweens or teens with low self-esteem usually still hold a version of the personal fable.

The correct answer is the person-situation debate.
The person-situation debate is a common topic of discussion by s<span>ocial-cognitive psychologists. Those who support the "person" debate argue that individual and innate traits and characteristics of a person determine his or her behavior. On the other hand, those who support the "situation" debate (situationists) argue that people's behavior varies considerably across different situations, and due to this innate factors do not have strong associations with human behavior. </span>
