Could we say that answer choice B is implied by the passage at all, or is it fully wrong and not even implied?
I thought that answer choice B is implied by the passage, but answer choice E is much more strongly implied, making E the correct choice. I believe that B is implied mostly by the third example, where it explicitly says that a small fraction of the people in the room noticed the shirt. This small fraction is not in comparison to the student's expectations, making it possible that answer choice B could be implied in saying that people "tend not to notice."
Never thought my psychology class would come in handy here. Thanks to the girl who did a whole presentation in a really wild t-shirt then pointed out at the end that none of us noticed lol.
I am really stressed by the timing element of the drill! I got the answer right in the blind review because I rushed to get an answer as quickly as I could! frustrating....
Before reading the answers I noticed that all of the scenerios relate to someone overthinking a perceived flaw internally and thinking everyone else can notice the insecurity or internal thought. However, the researchers found that most people who interacted with the subject did not notice to the extent that the subject thought they would.
A. Incorrect because every scenario outlined illustrates the subject internalizing something or overthinking. This would be the correct answer if the person were completely unaware of their actions.
B. Incorrect. "People tend to" is overly inclusive of people's ability to notice appearance. There isn't any direct argument being made in the passage. It is 3 separate scenerios that illustrate a braoder point.
C. Incorrect. The passage doesn't discuss how often the subject notices the behavior of others.
D. Incorrect. Too all encompassing with the "Necessary" only if phrase. People may still notice someone's appearance without the subject drawing attention to it.
E. Correct. This answer is the best answer to describe the three scenarios illustrated in the passage.
I feel like I always forget a word in the actual stimulus that could change the entire answer choice.
