D) little perceived control

Melinda is experiencing conflict, as she is faced with the difficult choice of whether or not to file for divorce. Conflict arises when we are faced with two or more competing options or desires, and we must choose between them. This can cause stress and uncertainty, as we weigh the pros and cons of each option and try to make the best decision. The other options listed (A, C, and D) are not necessarily applicable to Melinda's situation, as we do not have enough information about her level of control or sense of agency in the situation.
