Professor Leary reviews the role of self-presentation in our social lives--and our frequent discomfort with it. How can we both manage impressions and be authentic individuals? Is impression management just another form of dishonesty, or an essential tool? The study of self-presentation can reveal to us not just how we want to be seen, but at a much deeper level, who we actually are.

Follow Professor Mark Leary of Duke University through the basics of self-presentation, his primary area of scholarship for more than 40 years in the field of social psychology.

Professor Leary unpacks our motivations for presenting socially undesirable impressions, and the antisocial behavior that such impression management can generate.
