Question

identifying barriers to decision-making
cynthia is active in the school band and student government, and she has a good group of friends. she typically does well in her classes, but she is struggling with her biology class. she goes in to talk to her teacher, and he offers her some makeup work, but cynthia has doubts. she does not feel like she is smart enough to pass the course.
what could be interfering with cynthias decision - making process?
o too many friends
o low intelligence
o too many activities
o low self - esteem

Explanation:

Cynthia's doubt about her ability to pass the course ("not feel like she is smart enough") indicates a lack of confidence in herself. Self - esteem refers to how one values and respects oneself. Having low self - esteem can lead to self - doubt and hesitation in decision - making. The fact that she is active in school band, student government, and has friends does not directly imply these activities are barriers. There is no indication of low intelligence as she typically does well in classes.

Answer:

low self - esteem
