Answer:

availability bias

Explanation:

The <u>availability</u> bias can explain why managers doing performance appraisals give more weight to recent employee behaviors than to behaviors of 6 or 9 months earlier.  Availability bias is the tendency for individuals to judge or concluded on a case based on the ease at which that case, a name or individual occurred to your mind. Hence, the manager rated the new employee better because he first came to his mind considering that he/she is a new addition to the workforce compared to the older staff members. For example, after seeing snakes in the toilet of a plane repeatedly you begin to think that it is a occurrence and you refuse to use the toilet of a plane during flights for fear that there may be snakes in them.

Answer:

availability bias

Explanation:

Also known as the availability heuristic, the availability bias describes a mental shortcut and error in thinking that bases judgements and decisions on available or immediate examples that come to a given person's mind when evaluating a specific topic, concept, method or decision. Such as the manager does above when he believes an employee has exhibited the worst behaviour the company has ever seen because it is only recent and it is "an immediate example".

Popular culture and high culture. 

Popular culture are the mannerisms, beliefs, values, and leisure of the mass society. High culture are these same things but for the elite of a society. 

These both reflect the overall culture and are part of the mainstream culture. Issues of social class are reflected in the cultural tastes of these two lines of culture. Low culture is the derogatory term for popular culture typically used by those in the high culture.

Oscar would like to go to a movie without supervision. To try and get what he wants, he starts by asking his mom if he can go on
baherus [9]

Answer:

Door in face

Explanation:

In psychology, the door in face technique is a method of persuasion according to which the persuader tries to convince other person to comply to a large request (which the other person will likely say no to), then, the persuader makes a significantly smaller request and then the other person is likely to say yes.

It's been observed that using this technique the other person is most likely to accept the smaller request than if the request had been presented by its own at first (without the large request first).

In this example, Oscar wants to go to the movies by himself, however he asks his mom if he can go on a trip to the Rollercoaster Park and he already knows the answer will be no. We  can see that<u> Oscar is making a </u><u>large</u><u> request and that his mom will say no to this one, but this wasn't even what Oscar really wants to do.</u> However, after this is asked, <u>he asks if he can at least go to the movies by himself (and which is what he actually wanted to ask)</u>. This second request is significantly smaller than the first one and her mom says yes. Therefore, this is an example of the door-in-face technique.

As Bob is driving on an exit off the freeway, he comes to a stop light and sees a homeless man asking people for spare change. “
riadik2000 [5.3K]

In Bob´s argument we can infer an inductive fallacy known as fallacy by association which it is affirmed that the qualities of a specific object correspond to those of a general group, through an inconsequential relationship. It is argued that one´s qualities are intrinsically or essentially qualities of another simply by association.

On this case, we can evidence a fallacy of anecdotal evidence, hurried generalization or law of small numbers which consists of establishing a generalized conclusion based on isolated or anecdotal facts.
