Question

You go to the on-line grade book to check out your grade on the last test. The grade is a 60. You tell yourself this has to be a mistake. The teacher must have recorded someone else's grade or graded your test with the wrong answer key. Which defense mechanism are you using?

Answer 1

Answer:

Denial.

Explanation:

According to my research on studies conducted by various psychologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the defense mechanism being used in this situation is Denial. This is a defense mechanism where the individual refuses to accept what is real and instead creating a more acceptable fantasy in your head. This is what the individual in this scenario is doing by creating a false scenario in his head in order to explain his bad grade.
