The person then concludes that psychotherapists show more expert performance after years of practice, which is:
A) a faulty conclusion because some people are just naturally better therapists even without much experience.
B) a good conclusion that follows reasonably from all of the evidence in various domains.
C) a faulty conclusion based on a sweeping generalization and is not supported by research.
D) probably a good conclusion as long as the research supporting it in the other areas of expertise is of high quality.
