A listener accepts every statement as true because of the speaker's reputation. What perspective error is this?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Bias caused by source reputation

This is a source-reputation or authority bias: the listener accepts a claim because of the speaker’s fame, status, or respected image rather than examining its evidence and reasoning. Option A is correct. Confirmation bias involves favouring information that agrees with one’s prior beliefs, while selective listening means attending only to chosen parts of a message. Incorrect decoding concerns misunderstanding the message, not blindly trusting its source.
