Answer 1

Answer:people who derive their self-worth from multiple domains are less likely to be upset by a failure in one domain- A

Explanation:

Contingencies of Self-Worth theory propose that self-esteem is very important, and that it is

not sufficientt to look at self esteem in one dimension of importance but necessary to consider other dimensions by considering other  events / dimensions that are relevant to an individual’s self esteem. This is because Most people and researchers have  only looked at one dimension of self-esteem, whether  high or low and therefore believe that having high self-esteem should lead to all sorts of positive outcomes leading to a happy life  while low esteem would lead to an unhappy lige but research has found out that having high or low self esteem does not lead to a happy or sad outcome in life therefore people who derive their self-worth from multiple domains are less likely to be upset by a failure in one domain.
