It sounds like there are quite a few terms you are uncertain about and that can cause confusion. Please see these terms defined below.
Bereavement: Mind (https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/guides-to-support-and-services/bereavement/about-bereavement/) defined bereavement as "the experience of losing someone important to us"
Stress: NHS (https://www.nhs.uk/every-mind-matters/mental-health-issues/stress/#what-is) defined stress as "the body's reaction to feeling threatened or under pressure"
Core beliefs: Cambridge Dictionary (https://dictionary.cambridge.org/example/english/core-belief) defined core beliefs as beliefs "that is generally accepted in the society"
Emotional reasoning: Autistica (https://www.autistica.org.uk/what-is-autism/anxiety-and-autism-hub/unhelpful-thinking-styles) defined emotional reasoning as "when we make judgements based on how we are feeling"
Pavlov's dogs: Pavlov tested his theory of classical conditioning on his dogs. You can find more information about this at https://www.simplypsychology.org/pavlov.html
Self-fulfilling prophecy: Simply Psychology (https://www.simplypsychology.org/self-fulfilling-prophecy.html) defined self-fulfilling prophecy as "a sociological term used to describe a prediction that causes itself to become true"
Polarised thinking: Hasson (2019) (https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/Positive_Thinking_Pocketbook/0tt5DwAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq="polarised+thinking"+definition&pg=PA12&printsec=frontcover) defined polarised thinking as "'all or nothing' thinking. There's no middle ground. Things are either good or bad, right or wrong, a success or a total failure"
Mental filter: Paraphrasing Carr (2015) (https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/The_Handbook_of_Child_and_Adolescent_Cli/i7BACwAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq="mental+filter"+psychology&pg=PA642&printsec=frontcover), a mental filter could be defined as selecting aspects of situations to focus on (whether positive or negative) and drawing conclusions based on the selected aspects of situations.
I hope these definitions help! If you require any further clarification though, please do not hesitate to ask
