Ethan tells his mother that he is not good at math because he got seven questions wrong on his math test and his friend Jack got only one question wrong. Ethan’s conclusion that he is "not good at math" demonstrates the concept of social comparison.
Step-by-step explanation:
Social comparison is the act of comparing own attitudes, capacities and emotions with those of other people, in order to assess their correctness and adequacy. Social comparison allows to know that the individual tends to self-evaluate, that is, to know if their opinions, attitudes and qualities are correct or comparable with those of other individuals in their environment. Ethan came to that conclusion after doing a rigorous self-evaluation of himself from the comparison with his friend.
