Based on the knowledge that the root spect means "see," we can deduce that the word introspection can be broken down into two parts: "intro" which means within or inward, and "spect" which means see. Therefore, the most likely meaning of the word introspection is "a close look at one's thoughts or emotions." This option aligns with the idea of looking within oneself and examining one's thoughts and emotions, which is related to the concept of seeing inward or introspecting.
