Answer:

The correct option is: a. Learned helplessness

Explanation:

Learned helplessness is a state of mind characterized by a perceived<u> lack of control over the events or situations.</u> A person subjected to repetitive adverse events or situations develops a sense of powerlessness and thus is unwilling to avoid subsequent encounters.

According to this theory, depression and other related mental conditions, can be a result of the <u>perceived or real lack of control over the outcomes of the events or situations.</u>
