Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The reactions of Mark and Chandler suggest that each has a distinct personality. Personality refers to the unique pattern of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that characterizes an individual and remains relatively stable over time and across situations. Mark's calm and thoughtful response to stress is likely a reflection of his personality, as is Chandler's tendency to become agitated. The other options (reaction formation, collective unconscious, Oedipus complex) do not accurately capture the differences between Mark and Chandler's reactions to stress.
