According to research, when people are not included as part of a group they are MOST likely to report feeling:

A. extreme rejection

B. substantial rejection

C. minimal rejection

D. moderate rejection

Personally, I would say it's B. D & A are too exaggerated. If you think about it emotionally the way it would effect you, it would be somewhat similar or different depending who you ask that question. I'm very emotional so I would say A, but it could different for you. If we are talking generally. The majority of people would say minimal to substantial.

Answer: B. Substantial rejection.

Explanation:

Research has proven that in a situation where someone is not expressly included in a group, that person will probably report feeling substantial rejection because of that experience. That level of rejection can be mitigated if that person is told beforehand the reason why they were not welcomed. Extreme Rejection can appear when there's a specific exclusion from a group.
