I believe the correct answer is: high self-monitoring
Mark Snyder, American social psychologist, introduced the
concept of self-monitoring during the 1970s to show how much people monitor
their self-presentations, expressive behavior, and nonverbal affective displays.
He stated in his studies that self-monitoring can be:
1. high self-monitoring
2. low self-monitoring
High self-monitoring individuals closely monitor themselves
and behave in a manner that is highly responsive to social cues and their
situational context.
In this case, Sally is high self-monitoring as she examines
a situation for cues of how she should react, and then tries to meet the
demands of the situation rather than act on her own feelings, before she acts
or speaks.

representatives of the public with access to specialist resources from

research. This would hopefully force the analysis to be done on a
practical foundation.
