While there are many factors that contribute to this pattern, it is suggested that they get mixed up with drugs and alcohol so that they have a good excuse in case their career takes a turn for the worse i.e., they can simply blame misfortunes on partying too much rather than on a personal lack of talent, which would be more painful! If this is true, then it would be correct to say that stars who party too much are often engaging in ____.
A) self-regulation
B) introspection
C) overjustification
D) self-handicapping
