Answer:

Is repetitive and argumentative.

Explanation:

The effect of the underlined words: -yes, at herself- is repetitive and argumentative at the same time. Since in saying "to herself" she is saying the same thing but in other words and at the same time, she argues and reinforces what she says so that she understands more what she means. By saying "to herself" leads the reader to what is being said about the person.
