Explanation:

Valence refers to the positive - negative quality of an emotion. Tom is frustrated (negative valence) and Naomi is delighted (positive valence). Arousal is about the level of activation or energy in an emotion. There is no indication in the statements about differences in arousal levels (e.g., no mention of how energized or calm they feel). So the main difference is in valence.

Answer:

valence.
