Answer 1

There is a discrepancy between the real self and ideal self (option 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Rogers supported that people who suffer anxiety have mentalized themselves in an unrealistic way and due to that they are susceptible, weak, to opposite information. For example, if someone accept as true that they are good playing sports but actually they are not, and they notice it while playing, they would get wrong perceptions of what they are doing. Their anxiety will grow up and provoke them more misrepresentations, which sooner or later will create a vicious cycle in which they will be more anxious in order to believe they are good at playing sports.

Answer 2

It occurs when there is a discrepancy between the real self and ideal self.
