While riding a harrowing rollercoaster, Jim notices that the person sitting next to him is extremely attractive and he resolves to get her phone number when the ride is over. Jim is probably doing this because he is: a. inferring a social compatibility based on mutual interest.
b. correctly inferring, based on introspection, that he is attracted to this person.
c. misattributing his arousal from the rollercoaster ride to sexual attraction.
d. a real go-getter.

C.

Explanation:

Misattribution of arousal is a psychological term used to define the process where people misunderstand the cause of their aroused feelings.

In the given case, Jim is misattributing his arousal from the rollercoaster rise to sexual attraction. He is misunderstanding his aroused feelings towards the girl sitting next to him in a harrowing rollercoaster ride.

The feelings aroused in him is because of the ride to which he misattributes to sexual attraction.

Therefore, option C is correct.
