Answer:

The answer is coercion.

Explanation:

Under this basis of power, an individual can force another to act against his/her will by implementing a punishment. In extreme cases, coercion may imply the infliction of harm to raise the credibility of a threat.

In the example, the mother is implementing a punishment (taking away the phone) to oblige Samantha to leave the phone.
