Answer:

The correct answer is C. Self-serving bias.

Explanation:

The self-serving bias can be understood as a tendency that individuals has to attribute positive outcomes to internal factors such as personal abilities, personality, intelligence, etc. However negative outcomes are attributed to external factors.

For instance, a person experiecing self-serving bias is playing a football match. They score a goal and then gets expelled.

When asked about the goal the person says that is because the've been practicing for almost a year and had already master the art of the goal.

When asked about the red card they say that it's because the referee had no idea about football and that he wasn't supposed to be expelled.

In this particular case Penny attributes her getting an acting job to her good acting. When she doesnt get the next acting job she blames the casting director for not wanting to hire a woman.

This is an example of a self-serving bias.
