Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research suggests that women who experience gender discrimination or bias in the workplace are more likely to experience symptoms of depression. Losing the promotion to a male employee, particularly if Rebecca feels it was due to gender bias, could lead to feelings of inadequacy and lead to depression. None of the other options are supported by research as a likely outcome in this situation.
