A major purpose of feedback is to tell a person ________.

A) how well he or she communicates the true self
B) how well he or she has performed
C) the difference between right and wrong
D) when it is time to enhance self-esteem

The primary purpose of feedback is to inform a person about how well they have performed, whether it is in an academic, professional, or personal context. Feedback can help individuals identify areas for improvement, build upon their strengths, and refine their skills. While feedback can certainly impact an individual's self-esteem, this is not the primary purpose of providing feedback. Similarly, feedback is not primarily intended to inform individuals about the difference between right and wrong, though it may be used for this purpose in certain contexts (e.g. providing feedback on ethical behavior). Finally, feedback does not aim to tell a person how well they are communicating their true self; while feedback can inform a person about how effectively they are communicating, this is not the primary objective of providing feedback.
