The expression toward a therapist of feelings linked with earlier relationships is known as

a. transference.

b. resistance.

c. meta-analysis.

d. the therapeutic alliance.

e. fixation.

The answer is: A. transference

When transference occurs, people will distribute the emotions that we experience in the past (could be negative or positive emotions) and attribute it to the situation that we face today.

Example of a transference would be an adult who feel claustrophobic in small spaces like elevator because she is used to be punished by her parents by being locked in a small room every time she made a mistake.
