Question

Tirth Patel · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  This scenario exemplifies the phenomenon of priming, in which exposure to a certain stimulus (in this case, the missing-child poster) can influence our perception and interpretation of subsequent events or stimuli. Priming can result in heightened sensitivity or attention to specific information, and can impact our judgments and decision-making processes. In this case, the missing-child poster may increase our vigilance for potential child-related dangers, leading us to interpret an ambiguous interaction with a heightened sense of suspicion.
