You and your friend just met a woman at the bookstore, and she recommended a very good book to you. You guess, based on her appearance and demeanour, that she is a teacher. Your friend suggests that she is a teacher and also a writer. What should you think about your friend's suggestion?

◦ Your friend has used an availability heuristic to decide that the woman must be a writer as well as a teacher.
◦ It's a very good idea, because being a teacher increases the likelihood that she is also a writer.
◦ Your friend has used the conjunction fallacy, assuming that the odds of two events occurring together are more likely than the odds of either event happening alone.
◦ Your friend has just used the representativeness heuristic to arrive at a conclusion.
