LSAT 131 - Section 3 - Question 07

May 13, 2012

Although most people know what their bad habits are and want to rid themselves of them, a majority of these people find it very difficult to do so. This is because cessation of habitual behavior is immediately and vividly painful, while whatever benefit is to be gained by the absence of the habit is perceived only dimly because it is remote.

Summary

Most people know what their bad habits are and want to get rid of them. However, most people find it difficult to get rid of bad habits. This is because stopping bad behavior is immediately painful and the benefits to be gained are dimly perceived.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

People who are most successful at getting rid of their bad habits are people who can more clearly see the benefits.

A

can vividly imagine remote but attainable benefit

This answer is strongly supported. We know from the stimulus that most people find it difficult to get rid of bad habits because they have difficulty perceiving the benefits. In the absence of this difficultly, people are likely to find it easier to get rid of bad habits.

B

can vividly imagine their present pain being felt in the future

This answer is unsupported. The stimulus is not about the ability to imagine present pain in the future.

C

have succeeded in the past at modifying their behavior

This answer is unsupported. The stimulus is not about people who have succeeded in the past.

D

are relatively unaware of their own behavioral characteristics

This answer is unsupported. The stimulus is limited to people who are aware of their bad habits.

E

can vividly remember the pain caused them in the past by their bad habits

This answer is unsupported. The stimulus is not about people who remember their experiences.
