In propositional logic, this sentence can be symbolized as pVq.
Propositional logic deals with propositions being true or false. Basic logical connectives are AND, OR, NOT. "OR" is a disjunction connective, symbolized by "V"
The symbols p and q refer to propositions or statements that are connected together to make a compound statement. Connecting two statements with or is a disjunction. In a disjunction, the compound statement is true if and only if statement p OR statement q OR both statements are true. The compound statement is false if and only if statement p AND statement q are both false.
In the example above, the statement "disembodied spirits exist" is statement p, while the statement "psychic hoaxes are rampant" is statement q.

Explanation:
The last time I experienced ineffective communication was when I tried talking to my younger sibling on the dangers of anger. I had noticed that she always threw tantrums and would always get angry when she did not get her way.
1. The communication was ineffective because I used bogus words which she found difficult to understand. In a statement I made, I mentioned that 'anger was inimical and detrimental as it predisposes a person to health issues which could lead to death'. This sentence was ineffective as she did not understand the meaning of inimical and detrimental and the possibility of death scared her.
2. The encoding and decoding stages were problematic. The encoding stage was problematic because I did not really understand the level of knowledge of my receiver. The decoding stage was also problematic because the receiver was lost as to the meaning of the words I used and misinterpreted the message.
3. Filtering is the withholding of information by a sender because he feels the receiver might not need the information. I filtered the meaning of the big words I used which were not age-appropriate.
4. I should have used words that would be understood by a five-year-old. This means that instead of using inimical and detrimental, I would have used bad or not good. Death was also not a good example to have used. I would have said that anger would make us not to be loved by our friends or any other lighter example.
I don’t get what is required exactly my apologies but I hope you get help
Answer: A. A confirmation bias
Explanation: Since Maribel is already convinced that the defendant is not guilty, she seeks proof, or rather, confirmation of her opinion, feeling, conviction, etc. That is why she carefully listens to what the defense lawyer has to say, while paying less attention to the prosecutor's statement. This means that Maribel has a certain bias towards the accused and seeks confirmation of her bias, that is, her conviction that the accused is not guilty.
The term confirmation bias in psychology means favouring information that confirms one's opinion (bias), while ignoring information that states the opposite. This means that confirmation bias is, in fact, a kind of cognitive bias, because Maribel has already cognitively perceived (decided) the accused for some reason not guilty, although may exists evidence to the contrary.
