Lolita uses her kitchen knife to cut vegetables. She always uses her knife for either slicing bread or for chopping meat. Despite these uses, Lolita also occasionally uses the knife to unscrew nails from her kitchen equipment. This alternate way of using the knife shows that Lolita has overcome _________.

Answer 1

Answer:

functional fixedness

Explanation:

According to my research on studies conducted by various psychologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question this shows that Lolita has overcome functional fixedness. This is a cognitive bias that limits an individual to using an object only in the way that the inventor intended for it to be used. Since Lolita uses the knife for non traditional uses we can she has overcome this.
