Answer:

B.

Explanation:

In 1976, a research was conducted on what are the causes that some trick-or-treaters get involve in overindulging of candies. This research was conducted by Ed Diener and his colleagues. The results were that those children who came alone and could be identified stole only about 7% of candies whereas children who were anonymous and were in group stole about 57% of the candies.

So, from the given options the correct option is B. Because those children who were anonymous and in group were most likely to steal more than who came alone and could be identified.
