Answer:

functional fixedness.

Explanation:

In Psychology, functional fixedness can be defined as an inability of a person to realize that a physical object or device generally known to be used for a particular purpose, is capable of being used to perform other functions.

This ultimately implies that, it is a cognitive bias that involves the inability to see a physical object as being capable of being used to perform other functions i.e seeing a physical object as functioning only in one type of way.

Hence, perceiving scissors as only useful in its cutting capacity would be considered a functional fixedness. A scissors can be used to bore a hole in a material.
