Explanation:

The cognitive evaluation model establishes the different causes that influence people's stressors; this model presents two stages of evaluation to obtain the necessary tools to reduce or tolerate stressful situations.

The stages of cognitive evaluation are:

The primary evaluation: The person is aware of the stressful situation and assesses his condition to know if he can control it, if the individual decides that he can handle it, it will continue to the second stage.

The secondary evaluation: at this stage, the person identifies the resources he has to face the stressful situation and looks for the techniques that help him to face the stressors.

As in the case of Berkley, when he realizes that the discussion with his wife is a stressful situation, he is going through the first stage of evaluating the model; And when he thinks about the options he has to solve the case, he is using the second stage of evaluation.
