Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is: B) withdrawal cognitions

Explanation:

Withdrawal cognitions (in business) can also be referred to as "Quitting process", its definition is: the overall thoughts and feelings about quitting a job.

Anyone who has ever worked for someone else has either quitted his job or thought about quitting his job. There are lots of reasons for doing this, the main one is lack of job satisfaction (e.g. we don't like our work, we want to get paid better, we work too many hours, etc.).

But quitting a job is rarely an easy task, because a job is important to almost everyone, we need to work. Quitting itself is a whole process, where you evaluate the pros and cons of doing so, you might also doubt on your decision to either quit or stay. That process is withdrawal cognitions.
