According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation.

We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

According to Freud, human behavior is primarily shaped by this hidden realm.
