Answer:

1. a sunk cost fallacy

Explanation:

According to sociology and psychology, the sunk cost fallacy refers to a situation in which an individual continues a behavior that he/she is not enjoying anymore because they already invested some resources on it (effort, time or money). In other words, <u>they feel committed to continue with this behavior just because of what they previously invested on it.</u>

<u />

In this example, Rachene bought a magazine subscription but she doesn't really enjoy the articles, however she keeps reading the magazine because she paid for the subscription. We can see that <u>she keeps reading the magazine because of the money she invested on it.</u> Thus, this is an example a sunk cost fallacy.
