Begin by understanding the context of the problem, which involves psychodynamic theory, a key concept in psychology developed by Sigmund Freud.
Recognize that the problem is asking about a specific psychodynamic process related to familial relationships and affections.
Identify the key terms in the problem: 'girl views her father as the object of her affection' and 'mother as a rival'. These are crucial to understanding the correct concept.
Recall that the Oedipus complex refers to a boy's feelings of desire for his mother and jealousy towards his father. The equivalent for girls is the Electra complex, which involves a girl's feelings of desire for her father and rivalry with her mother.
Conclude that the correct term for the process described in the problem, where a girl views her father as the object of her affection and her mother as a rival, is the Electra complex.
