Respuesta :

The correct answer is letter B.

Explanation: Role Performance is when  someone meets an expected pattern of behavior.

This can happen for several reasons, to fit into a group, or to belong to a group even if that created persona is not real.

In her case, it was the first day of high school and she felt pressured, to have friends, to fit in and meet those expectations.
