The correct answer is A. Carrie displays her persona at parties

Explanation:

Carl Jung was an important Swiss psychiatrist mainly know for proposing the Analytical theory, in this, he evaluates different aspects of mind through multiple concepts. This includes Jung's anima and animus that are understood as the feminine or masculine component of individuals and that influences an individual's behaviors and actions. Besides this, Jung also proposed the "persona" that refers to impression or image individuals present to the world and that is most cases hides the real identity of the individual and therefore acts as a mask.

The concept "persona" can be applied to Carrie because although she is moody, self-centered and bossy in social events she presents herself as funny, sociable and happy, which means she creates an impression that hides her real identity. Considering this, the behavior of Carrie shows in terms of Jung's theory that she displays her persona at parties.
