Answer: Displacement

Explanation: Displacement could be referred to as a defense mechanism which involves the transfer of aggression, emotion or tension from the source to a target, the target usually is a less threatening target. In this case, the target here is the locker door. Displacement usually takes place when faced with a unhappy situation and rather than attacking the source, the tension of the disappointment is vented on a less threatening target. The outburst which ensued by kicking the locker which is less threatening target and not another athlete or coach who could react.

What effect is Evan Almighty have on the modern audience​
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Evan Almighty is a 2007 American fantasy disaster comedy film, and a stand-alone sequel and spin-off of Bruce Almighty (2003). The film was directed by Tom Shadyac, written by Steve Oedekerk, based on the characters created by Steve Koren and Mark O'Keefe from the original film. It stars Steve Carell and Morgan Freeman reprising their roles as Evan Baxter and God, respectively, with newcomers Lauren Graham and John Goodman.

Production of the film began in January 2006. Several visual effect companies were used to provide CGI for the numerous animals and the climactic flood scene. The main plot is a modern-day retelling of Noah's Ark. By the time the film had completed production, it had become the most expensive comedy film ever (this record was later overtaken by Men in Black 3). In October 2007, the film was released on DVD and HD DVD.

The film opened on June 22, 2007, and made less than its budget of $175 million worldwide, while receiving generally negative reviews from critics. Evan Almighty was also a financial failure and was notable for allegations that the many animals used in the film were treated poorly, but Universal Pictures insisted the animals were treated humanely.

Leno4ka [110]
The correct answer is empathy. 

According to Hoffman (1981) children learn empathy responses or how to empathize as part of different developmental levels or stages. Empathy is defined as a person's ability to feel the same emotions as others around them, as well as the awareness and understanding of another person's feelings. In the early stages of developing empathy, Hoffman found that infants express empathy by crying when they witness another infant crying.
