Kimberly hates her new neighbor, bob. she thinks that he is a rich snob who is constantly showing off with his fancy new cars, boats, and landscaping. despite her opinion, every time she sees bob, she goes out of her way to wave, smile, and ask how bob is doing. which defense mechanism is kimberly using?

The correct answer is :

Sublimation.

In psychology, sublimation is a kind of defense mechanism, in which socially unacceptable drives or thoughts are converted into socially acceptable behaviors. Sigmund Freud understood that sublimation was a sign of civilization, enabling people to perform normally in culturally acceptable ways.

Kimberly´s nice to Bob, despite her hatred towards him, because it´s the socially acceptable behavior.

your answer would b. the missisipi river
