b. understanding

d. description

Answer 1

I think the answer is A. Prediction. Since the car was redesigned, psychologists tend to see what will be the behavior or how one person will react or behave on the output of the redesigned car. A psychologist may able to foresee a behavior pattern that their prediction might give them the ability to change or control the behavior.
