Hillary meets her brother's friend drake who is a tall and lanky man. she concludes that drake might be a basketball player for his college team. according to the biases and heuristics in decision making, it can be concluded that hillary mirrors in this scenario.

I believe the answer is: the representativeness heuristic

the representativeness heuristic refers to the tendency to make judgement based on probability that we had under uncertain situation.

In our mind, representativeness heuristic serves as some sort of mental shortcut that allow us to make us able to make decision quickly even though the decision might be incorrect due to lack of evidence.

dear friend:

  i hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. as you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of india in your previous letter, in the following lines i have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. you will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of hinduism, buddhism, jainism, and sikhism. you won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. there are 22 official languages in india.

  basically, india is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. for example the people of india believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as diwali, holi, eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.

  another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. in spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. i am sure you would love to visit india soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. give regards to uncle and aunt. do visit india with your family and experience our hospitality.

your friend,

the atm that sounds like it should be the answer
