Answer:

The answer is d. The contrast error.

Explanation:

The contrast error occurs when the qualities of a person are greatly exaggerated in comparison to previous performances. For example, if the first candidate in a job interview offers a particularily poor impression, it's likely that any improvement by a later candidate will be accepted by the interviewer. In other words, this phenomenon refers to "setting the bar too low" --or too high.
