Answer: B. False Consensus bias
Explanation: False Consensus bias occurs when an individual tends to overestimate the significance of his own personal idea, notion, values, stance believing every other person will concur with his or her decision. It is an attributional type of cognitive bias whereby an individual strongly believes that his idea or opinion is normal and thus other people should also reason, adopt or act with the same idea. When people or group negates their ideas or opinion, they feel such individual or group aren't doing the right thing because they feel their opinion is the 'normal' standard of reasoning.
Answer:
This is an example of masked-man fallacy.
Explanation:
The masked-man is a fallacy in which two people or objects are mistakenly considered to be either identical or completely different. The most common example used to explain it is the following:
I know who Joshua is.
I don't know who the masked man is.
Therefore, Joshua is not the masked man.
In the example above, Joshua and the masked man are considered different, unrelated. <u>In the situation we are analyzing here, the opposite happens. To reach the conclusion that Tamiko stole Maya's shoes, we are making the huge mistake of not considering any other possibility. Tamiko could very well have an identical-looking pair of shoes; Maya could have lent Tamiko her shoes and forgotten about it, and so on. Therefore, assuming that the shoes are the same, that they belong to Maya and have been stolen, is a result of wrong reasoning and an example of masked-man fallacy.</u>
