Social cognition researchers suggest that we sometimes have difficulty making sense of the social world because we lack the time and stamina to seek out all the relevant facts. This is due to the complexity of the social world and the sheer amount of information that we have to process. While it is possible that we may occasionally ignore relevant facts (choice A), this is not the main reason for our difficulties. Ignoring simple decisions in favor of complex decisions (choice B) does not seem to be a common problem, nor is it related to social cognition. It is not accurate to say that we do not have the intellectual capacity to understand the relevant facts (choice D) as our cognitive abilities are generally sufficient for understanding the social world. Finally, choice E is too vague and does not provide a clear explanation for our difficulties in making sense of the social world.
