Cognitive Restructuring is clearly at work when Kayla, faced with roommates who don't clean, stops labeling the situation as an injustice and reframes the extra cleaning as a built-in feature of an otherwise desirable living arrangement. Rather than holding the distorted frame of 'I'm being wronged,' Kayla Venmos the cost into her mental rent calculation — treating it the same way one factors in a noisy street.
