The correct answer is B. Observing your mother’s actions to see if she is angry

Explanation:

The term perception checking refers to different processes you make in order to check or prove/ disprove your perceptions in relation a situation or the words of a speaker, this perception cheeking can occur directly or indirectly. Direct perception checking occurs if you directly ask someone if your perception and interpretation is correct. On the other hand, indirect perception occurs when you do not ask directly but continue observing and listening to determine if your first perceptions and interpretations are correct to validate them or correct them if necessary. Considering this, an example of indirect perceptions checking is "Observing your mother’s actions to see if she is angry" because in this case, the strategy is not to ask directly to check if your perceptions about a situation were right, but to continue observing and listening to check them which is exactly what indirect perception checking is about.
