Answer:

- Point out that he has just experienced hindsight bias, a concept discovered by social psychologists.

Explanation:

As per the given description, the most appropriate response to the roommate would be 'pointing out that he has experienced hindsight bias.' The concept 'hindsight bias' has recently been discovered by the social psychologists in which an individual displays a tendency to perceive events as more predictable than they actually are. This similar tendency is being displayed by the roommate when he asserts that 'he could have predicted the finding even before hearing about it' which needs to be pointed out as it might lead to creating distortions in his memory.

What are typical topics for editorials and where might they appear?
Marianna [84]

Editorials or<em> leading articles</em> are articles written by senior editorial stuff or publisher of a newspaper or magazines. Editorials are often published unsigned although the name of editor is known to the reader ( the names are listed in the newspaper ).

These types of articles are usually published on a special page called the <em>editorial page</em>. The articles are long and opinionated, they express the author's point of view on a particular topic. On the same editorial page, <em>letters</em> <em>to the editor</em>, are featured ( letters from members of the public).

The typical topics of editorials are <em>current affairs</em> ( political or economic ), or <em>current events</em> happening in their surrounding ( elections, important meetings, sport events). The editors put forth their views on a topic they feel strong about. They help the readers gain a better understanding of a particular subject.
