How is a coping model presented in modeling forms?

Competent from the beginning
Initially fearful then gradually becomes competent
As needing no improvement
Independent of external validation

The correct answer is: Initially fearful then gradually becomes competent

The correct option explains that the coping model is initially fearful and then gradually becomes competent. This means that the model may struggle or be unsure at first, but over time, they will develop the skills and abilities to effectively cope with the situation. This process is a natural part of learning and growth, and it is normal for individuals to experience fear or uncertainty when trying something new. Option A is incorrect as it suggests that the model is competent from the beginning, which may not accurately represent real-life experiences. Option C is incorrect as it implies that the model requires no development or improvement, which is not the case. Lastly, option D is incorrect as it suggests that the coping model does not need any validation or support from external sources, which may not be accurate as it can be helpful to receive feedback and guidance from others.
