Answer:

Passive-Destructive responding.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on a Dynamic Conflict Model, that kind of response to a conflict (negative or positive) can be classified as Passive Destructive because the receiver ignores the positive news, since this kind of behavior is connected with avoiding, yielding, hiding emotions or self-criticism.
