In this article, Li and Gleitman are questioning the implications of the Whorf–Sapir linguistic relativity hypothesis.
The hypothesis argues (based on linguistic studies of Mayan populations) that the language of a society determines the members’ spatial reasoning, or the way they think about locations and distances. The Mayans use a spatial-coordinate system (ex. “to the north”) as opposed to a viewer-perspective system (ex. “to the left”).
Li and Gleitman question the findings, and they devise a research that involves only English speakers, but where they manipulate landmark cues. While they do not claim to have proven the Whorf–Sapir linguistic relativity hypothesis wrong, they argue that the availability of landmark cues plays a larger role in spatial reasoning than the linguistic system itself.

Answer: Confirmation bias
Explanation: Confirmation bias is a kind of bias where one seeks confirmation of one's biased assumption, whereby each confirmation of one's bias being selected at the same moment, although there is information that is contrary to one's biased assumption. In other words, this bias is a kind of biased selection, where one chooses the information that fits the assumption, and of course this can often be wrong.

According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), a diagnosis of personality disorder generally includes a significant long-term deviation from cultural expectations that leads to significant distress or impairment in at least two of the following areas:
The way you understand and interpret yourself, others, and events
The appropriateness of your emotional reactions
How well do you do when dealing with others and in relationships
Whether you can control your desires
It can sometimes be difficult to determine the type of personality disorder, as some personality disorders share the same symptoms and there may be more than one type. Other disorders, such as depression, anxiety, or substance abuse, may make the diagnosis more complicated. But it is worth the time and effort to get an accurate diagnosis.
