The nurse knows the Johari Window is a theoretical tool used to represent:
1. The id and the superego in relation to self-awareness.
2. Depression in family members.
3. A multidimensional model of self.
4. Self-disclosure in relation to others.

Rationale: There are many ways to think about self-awareness. Some theorists have used the image of multiple masks that people wear under a variety of circumstances. Others have written about the "true self" versus "the false self" or the "good me," the "bad me," and the "real me." Common to all these concepts is the idea that self-awareness is a complex, multidimensional phenomenon, often contradictory and partly undiscovered. The Johari Awareness Model, often called simply the Johari Window, is a theoretical tool used to represent self-awareness and self-disclosure in relation to other people. Depression, a multidimensional model of self, and the id and superego are not parts of the Johari Window.
