A student believes that an idea chosen by the majority must always be correct. What weakness of perspective is this?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Conformity bias

Conformity bias is the tendency to accept a group’s or majority’s opinion as correct without examining its evidence or logic. Therefore, option A is correct. Popularity may provide a clue, but it does not prove that an idea is true. Confirmation bias is different: it involves preferring evidence that supports an existing belief. Independent reasoning and evidence-based decision-making would require checking facts rather than following the majority automatically.
