Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
When a member draws undue attention to himself by talking excessively, advocating extreme ideas, or behaving in an unusual manner, he is seeking recognition. Often, after a statement is made by someone else, the recognition seeker will add an example or repeat in different words what has been said. He may divert the discussion with a meaningless anecdote in which he is the center of the tale. 1, record 2, English, - recognition%20seeker
