Answer:

Focusing on the information that confirms your existing beliefs

Explanation:

Confirmation bias is the bias that influences the desire related to belief. When an individual like to believe in an idea and want to confirm it as true then a person confirms that idea as true. These people are motivated by their desired beliefs.

The correct answer is verbal abuse

Verbal violence is an aggressive behavior, characterized by harmful words, which are intended to ridicule, humiliate, manipulate and / or threaten.

Verbal violence goes hand in hand with psychological violence, since the second is a consequence of the first.

One of the major difficulties is to identify verbal violence, as this is sometimes a sneaky violence. This means that it is a type of aggression that happens without realizing it, that is, they are often words considered banal, but that, over time, have the power to interfere with our psychological and make us feel bad, with low self-esteem, among several other consequences.
