Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Emotional contagion is the process by which one person's emotions and related behaviors directly trigger similar emotions and behaviors in other people. It can happen both consciously and unconsciously, and it often occurs through nonverbal communication such as facial expressions or tone of voice. The other options, such as attachment or empathy, are related to emotional connection but do not necessarily involve the direct transmission of emotions from one person to another.
