Cori is an outspoken critic of several local politicians. when, after years of having no problems parking in the alley behind her building, she suddenly starts being ticketed and then towed for doing so, she believes it is in retaliation for her criticism. but in fact, the building across the alley has recently changed ownership and the new owner has been reporting cori. cori's beliefs are best described as

illusory correlation

Explanation:

According to psychology, illusory correlation occurs when someone believes there is a correlation between two variables which in reality doesn't exist. Cori probably saw the fact that he has been parking there and nothing has ever happened to him that it was ok then for him to be parking there. He then assumed he may keep doing this even longer because according to illusory correlation people overestimate the frequency of their false correlations.

explanation:
