Answer:

B) self-serving bias.

Explanation:

Self-serving bias is a term used in social psychology to describe a form of cognitive bias whereby people tend to interpret or explain positive events as being caused by their personality or character, while they interpret the cause of negative events as brought about by external factors. In simple terms, people tend to attribute the cause of negative events to external factors while they take credit for positive events and believe it is because of their personality that such positive events was able to occur. This is usually done in an attempt to achieve self-esteem.

WITCHER [35]

Answer: He lacked the specific intent necessary for burglary because he believed that the bookie owed him the money.

Explanation:

Gambling can turn out sour sometimes, especially when results come out controversial.
