According to Twenge and her colleagues' (2002) findings, when people feel socially excluded, they are more likely to engage in self-defeating behaviors and also more likely to retaliate against the person who excluded them. This is consistent with the notion that social exclusion can elicit feelings of anger and aggression. Option B is incorrect because the findings do not suggest that people become humbled or kind in response to social exclusion. Similarly, option C is not supported by the research, as it does not appear that social exclusion is typically met with a calm or accepting response. Option D is incorrect because only option A is supported by the research.
