Answer:

The Cannon-Bard theory of emotion

Explanation:

According to the Cannon-Bard theory of emotion our emotions are the result of the thalamus sending a message to the brain as the body reacts to a stimulus.

Even if the person does not show a reaction, which is physical, emotions can be experienced. The reaction of the body and psychological emotion experienced happens at the same instant.

Here, Erica's body reacts psychologically and physically at the same time.

Hence this pattern of response would bolster the Cannon-Bard theory of emotion.
