Which of the following is an example of the availability heuristic?
◦ Seventy percent of the students in a classroom are women and 30 percent are men. One student is described as ambitious, athletic, and assertive. Most people are likely to think this description refers to a male student.
◦ Nate thinks Republicans and Democrats almost never work together in Congress. He believes this because he finds it much easier to think of examples of politicians from the two parties not working together than to think of examples of them working together.
◦ Kayla read a description of a dog online that she planned to adopt. The dog was described as "friendly, energetic, and intelligent." She was surprised to see a basset hound when she arrived at the shelter and laughed at her own expectation of a much smaller breed.
◦ When asked to select a tutor, Kevin chose the woman who was dressed conservatively and wore eyeglasses because he thought she would be the best teacher.
