Sherman's house was almost completely destroyed by fire last week. As he walked through the charred ...

Sherman's house was almost completely destroyed by fire last week. As he walked through the charred remains with the insurance adjuster, Sherman joked and said, "It's too bad that the only thing that wasn't destroyed is that ugly lamp." How would researchers like McCrae characterize Sherman's use of humour in this situation?

▸ It is an example of overcompensation and intellectualization.

▸ It will likely cause him to experience stress-rebound in the future.

▸ It can help to redefine the situation in a less threatening way.

▸ It will prevent post-traumatic stress disorder.
