Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Self-serving bias is a common type of cognitive bias that involves attributing successes to internal or personal factors while attributing failures to external factors. In this case, Jenny attributing her failure to the test questions being "ambiguous and confusing" is an example of self-serving bias, as she is blaming external factors (the nature of the test questions) rather than her own abilities or efforts.
