Catharsis generally reinforces the tendency to deal with anger in adaptive way. The correct option is B

Answer;

lash out toward others

Research indicates that catharsis generally reinforces the tendency to lash out toward others.

Explanation;Catharsis is the process of releasing strong emotions or relieving of emotional tensions through a particular activity or experience such as writing, certain kind of art, or music, in a way that helps one to understand these emotions.It is an emotional release intended to relieve aggressive urges. Releasing one's emotion, may be useful in temporarily decreasing anger; however, research about the lasting effects of catharsis finds that it doesn't necessarily lead to adaptive or healthy ways of dealing with anger. Releasing the emotions may temporarily relieve some emotions but it can lead to maladaptive ways of dealing with anger, such as through physical or violent behavior. Allowing oneself to engage in catharsis freely may also reinforce the tendency to lash out toward others without dealing with issues in a positive manner.
