Which option describes reaction formation?

  • Correct: When a normally calm person displays a wild or risk-taking behaviour in certain contexts.
  • Incorrect: When a person is driving in a way that is intended to make other road users angry.
  • Incorrect: When a person tries to rationalise obvious mistakes rather than learn from them.

Reaction formation: ”These people are unobtrusive and reserved in everyday life, but in other contexts […] they display another type of behavior with high risk taking.” (Driving Licence Book, 19th Edition, page 187)
