Answer:

Cognitive-mediational theory.

Explanation:

American psychologist Richard Lazarus proposed the cognitive-mediational theory, which aims to explain the connection existing between cognition, emotion, and stress. When we receive a stimulus, we make an appraisal - our mind makes assessments of the situation, both consciously and unconsciously, and derives a meaning from it. We will be aroused by the situation and produce an emotion response to it. Meaning and emotions derived from situations will be different for different individuals. That is why you and your date have dissimilar reactions.
