Answer:

Sense of grandiosity

Explanation:

In psychology, the term of "sense of grandiosity" is used to refer to a sense of superiority that an individual develops and makes them think that they are better/superior than the rest of the people. They see their peers as inferior  and they believe that only a few selected persons are at the same level as them.

In this question, Aliyah is certain that she is the smartest person in her workplace and she thinks her coworkers are less talented. However, this is a distortion since she actually has an average IQ and their coworkers don't perceive her as a particularly unique person. Therefore this is an example of sense of grandiosity.
