I believe that the missing word for the sentence above is stated below:


psychological reactance


The negative emotional response of psychological reactance precedes negative attitude change.



Psychological reactance is a motivational reaction and occurs when a person feels that someone or something is taking away their choices or limiting the range of alternatives. It functions within a complicated web of social and psychological reaction.
