Question 31 / 50:  A friend of yours has never taken a psychology course before. You show her four

cards labeled P, 7, E, 4, and ask her which cards need to be turned over to verify the

rule "If there is a consonant on the front, then there is an odd number on the back."

The correct answer is to turn over the cards labeled "P" and "4", but your friend

foolishly turns over cards labeled "P" and "7". You reassure her that most people

make this mistake, which is known as (a/an):

A  Schema
B  Functional fixedness
C  Availability heuristic
D  Confirmation bias
