She had a gut reaction because something bad happened after she lowered the flaps, so she instinctively raised them to "fix" the problem. No way would she have completed the necessary logical leaps to diagnose a tail stall without discussing it with the CA or at least verbalizing what she was doing.

It needs to be known that that she did was eerily similar to crew room banter in regard to tail stalls that I had heard at Pinnacle the winter prior to the CJC accident.
