Hiram just finished the most difficult statistics exam he has ever taken. when asked the next day by his mother how the exam went, hiram tells her that he cannot remember a single thing from the previous two days. this experience is most similar to which freudian defense mechanism, a mechanism that is "shielding" hiram from the anxiety of his exam?

The answer is repression.

Explanation:

The term refers to keeping thoughts and feelings out of reach, pushing them to the unconscious. This is done in order to avoid or reduce their emotional impact.

According to Freud, repression involves more than simply trying not to think about the issues. Instead, when a memory is truly repressed, a person might not even be aware that it exists.
