The reflexive-intensive pronouns are: myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves.

The reflexive use is to 'reflect' the antecedent noun. Example: Dad made himself some breakfast.

The intensive use is to put emphasis on the antecedent noun. Example: Dad himself made us breakfast.
