Answer: Uncertainty Reduction Theory
Explanation: Simply, as the name suggests, people with a sense of uncertainty want to reduce that uncertainty, and they can only do so by being sure of some facts based on the information they have gathered and thus increasing certainty. Based on the information gathered, such people learn about the behaviour of people who are the focus of their interest, such as the example here Myra is interested in her boyfriend's behaviour, and so can predict the behaviour and actions of her boyfriend, that is, who is in their focus. People are usually inclined to show anxiety because they feel uncomfortable when they cannot predict one's actions. Then, through interpersonal communication, which is, in fact, the theory of initial interaction, which is another name for said theory, information emerges that increases certainty and reduces the unpleasant feeling.
