Answer:

Belief perseverance

Explanation:

In this example, Mrs. Abel has a prejudiced belief that was formed before the existence of any evidence. When evidence is gathered, and this contradicts her assumptions, she is still unable to change her opinion. This is called belief perseverance. The term refers to the inability of people to change their own beliefs upon receiving new information that contradicts or refutes these beliefs. Belief perseverance is one of the reasons why it might be very difficult to successfully change someone's mind.
