Answer:

The answer is d) secondary appraisal.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to appraisal theory, our emotions are influenced by the evaluation (or appraisal) of a given situation.

Secondary appraisal is understood as evaluating the different options for coping with a situation, and will mostly rely on who can be held responsible for it.
