The answer to this mcat question from Kaplan's MCAT Question of the Day

While on the phone, a friend says: “A good friend would let me borrow the bike.” This friend is using which impression management strategy?

c) Ingratiation

d) Self-disclosure

What is Alter-casting?

Imposing a role on another person (in this case, “good friend”) is the hallmark of alter-casting.
