The correct answer is projection.

Explanation

Projection is a psychological defense mechanism where individuals attribute their own unacceptable feelings, thoughts, or qualities onto someone else. This can happen unconsciously as a way to cope with undesirable traits or emotions that they don't want to acknowledge in themselves.

• Repression involves burying distressing thoughts and feelings.
• Rationalization is creating excuses to justify behavior.
• Denial means refusing to accept reality or facts.
• Compensation involves offsetting a deficit in one area by excelling in another.
