Explanation:John Dewey recognized that people engage in self-enhancement when they distort things about themselves because they want to create a positive image that will make them look like they more lovable and capable. This is motivated by the fact that one wants to create this perception of being big and better.
Self enhancement has nothing to do with improving so that you can be better but it is all about creating an image that will make you look like you are more competent and capable individual more than one is in reality.
