Answer is D

Question should be self-presentation theory.

Self presentation is defined as the way we try to control how others see us, but it's just as much about how we see ourselves. It is a skill to achieve a level of comfort with who we are and feel confident to choose how we self-present.

Whereas, Self-perception theory says that people learn about their own attitudes and character traits by observing their own behavior. This mainly happens when we are unclear about our feelings toward something.
