Answer: B) Cognitive jealousy

Explanation: Cognitive jealousy is a phenomenon where one partner in a relationship is always in suspicion of the other partner's interest in someone who he or she automatically takes as rivals.

Riley's tendency to suspicious thinking and worrying that Kara might be interested in someone else (rival) is a good demonstration of cognitive jealousy.
