Answer:

The answer is displacement.

Explanation:

Under this mechanism, people direct their emotions to an object or person that didn't provoke their reaction in the first place. This way we can satisfy our impulse without the negative consequences.

Being angry at a child is a perfect example of displacement. Most of the times this reaction is unconscious.

Zarrin [17]

Answer: ethical lapse

Explanation:

An ethical lapse is an error or mistake in judgement that an individual commits which brings about a harmful outcome. It is usually as a result of an oversight as it really doesn't mean that the individual lacks integrity.

The scenario in the question is an ethical lapse. This is because the extra $25 she pocketed wasn't accounted for as it was an oversight and it wasn't that she intentionally stole the $25 or didn't account for it intentionally.
