The answer is <u>1) Anywhere in the sentence.</u>

An antecedent is a word or words that a pronoun refers to. To make it clear, some pronouns are "we", "they", "she", "her", etc.

For example, in the sentece: <em>My </em><em>friends</em><em> are coming to my house today so I will prepare some food for </em><em>them</em><em>. </em>"Friends" is the antecedent, and "them" is the pronoun, which refers to the antecedent.

And although we tend to use pronouns after the antecedent has been placed, it is also correct to use the pronouns before the antecedent. For example:

<em>Following </em><em>his</em><em> arrival in South America, </em><em>Columbus</em><em> sought to subjugate the Indians tribes.</em>

"His" is the pronoun, and "Columbus" is the antecedent.

<u>All of this to clarify that the pronoun can be placed after and before the antecedent. So, it could be placed anywhere in the sentence. </u>

However, if we were talking about a long paragraph, it would be preferable that pronouns are close to the antecedent to avoid confusion and we don't lose track of what's being said.

people overestimate the frequency of school shootings because such events are highly publicized when they do occur. this phenome
mamaluj [8]

People frequently overestimate the frequency of these situations since they are widely reported when they do occur.

The three heuristics that attracted the greatest attention were representativeness, anchoring and adjustment, and availability.

<h3>What is an example of availability heuristic?</h3>
  • The availability heuristic prioritizes sporadic events according to their recentness and vividness. For instance, aviation accidents might cause people to fear flying. But the chance of dying in a car accident is much higher than the chance of dying as an aviation passenger.
  • The accessibility Heuristic is a cognitive bias in which you make a choice based on information that is readily available to you, such as an example, information, or recent experience, even though it may not be the greatest example to guide your choice.
  • When faced with an instant choice requirement, the availability heuristic enables people to make decisions fast. When you're attempting to decide or pass judgment on the world around you, this can be useful.
