The correct answer is b. a self-adapter

A self-adaptive behavior refers to behaviors such touching one's own hair, face or clothes, fidgeting, tapping fingers, etc., in order to cope with stressful situations. In Tami's instance, because she is presumably anxious about some important health checkup results, she is showing a self-adaptive behavior by nervously shaking her leg.
