What is the psychological reason for the change in Kezia's image of her father?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: An experience of safety challenged her old fear

The governing psychological concept is the revision of an emotional schema through a new experience. Kezia has built an image of her father as frightening because her earlier encounters emphasize his stern voice, large presence and punishment. During the night, however, she experiences him as a source of warmth and safety when he comforts her after the nightmare. This new evidence conflicts with her old fear and allows her mind to reinterpret him as tired, loving and human rather than simply terrifying. Option B is correct because safety challenges and modifies the previous emotional belief. A would strengthen isolation, while C and D do not cause the important change described at the end.
