Participants in an Experiment Learn About Eight Positive and Four

Participants in an experiment learn about eight positive and four negative behaviors performed by members of group A. They also learn about four positive and two negative behaviors performed by members of group B. Which of the following patterns of results is most likely?

A) Group B will be liked more because they performed the fewest number of negative behaviors.
B) Group A and B will be liked equally well because the ratio of positive to negative behaviors is the same.
C) Group A will be liked less because of a perceived link between the distinctive events of membership in the larger group and performing more negative behaviors.
D) Group B will be liked less because of a perceived link between the distinctive events of membership in the smaller group and performing fewer negative behaviors.
