Kaguya needs a study guide for an upcoming exam but cannot afford to buy one. She is about to steal one from the university bookstore, even though in general she feels petty theft is wrong. As she is about to walk out of the store with the book, she approaches the glass doors at the entrance, where she sees her reflection. What does research suggest is likely to happen

Answer:

Kaguya will not steal the book

Step-by-step explanation:

In psychology mirrors are used to test self recognition in people and also in animals. mirrors can play several roles in how people function. a mirror reflection can help to develop a sense of self and it can help people to shift their perspectives on how they see things. By looking at her own reflection in the mirror Kaguya was able to reflect on herself and the fact that she is not a thief and not someone that should engage in such a behavior so she had to return this book.
