Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Bria likely believes she has been denied interactional justice because she was informed of her termination via email, which can be perceived as impersonal and lacking in respect or dignity. Procedural justice (fairness in the process) and distributive justice (fairness in the outcome) seem to have been upheld, as she was aware of the downsizing process and deemed it fair, and all average performers were treated similarly.
