We often tend to see psychological patterns in the pictures that people draw. For example, we might think that suspicious people would tend to draw exaggerated eyes. What error in judgment does this represent?
 
  a. the confirmation bias
  b. illusory correlation
  c. law of small numbers
  d. the my-side bias

Question 2

A likely explanation for the illusory-correlation effect is that
 
  a. people choose a stereotype as an anchor, and they make only small adjustments based on that anchor.
  b. people believe that correlations are illusions, somewhat similar to optical illusions.
  c. we pay too much attention to just one cell in the matrix, rather than the three other possible combinations of variables.
  d. we select the least available cell as an anchor, and then we make adjustments away from that anchor.
