Answer: B. scapegoat theory.

Explanation:

Scapegoat theory suggests the tendency to blame someone else for one's problem. This is a process for creating a sense of prejudice for a person or a group who is blamed.

The given situation is an example of a scapegoat theory. This is because here only the receiver of the ball is blamed for losing the championship because he fumbled the ball.

However, multiple studies have found a strong link between heavy social media and an increased risk for depression, anxiety, loneliness, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts.
