Explanation:

The term reciprocal determinism is a concept that was first introduced by Albert Bandura. This term refers to the phenomenon by which one person's behavior influences the environment, and in a reciprocal way the behavior is also influenced by that same environment. In other words, we act and our actions influence others around us which then will react to our actions and this will affect our actions again, in a cycle.

In this example, Harold thought Grant was mad at him so he ignored Grant's calls and attempts at conversation. In consequence, Grant got angered. But actually, Harold created the situation to which he was reacting. We can see that Harold behavior influenced the environment, his actions had an effect on Grant who ended up being angered by Harold's attitude. Therefore, this would be an example of reciprocal determinism.
