Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A psychologist with a cognitive perspective would be interested in understanding how people process, store, and utilize information. Therefore, option D, which focuses on the cause of a specific phobia, falls more under the domain of a psychologist with a behavioral perspective or a psychologist with a psychoanalytic perspective. The other options (A, B, and C) all relate to cognitive processes such as planning, language acquisition, and biases, respectively, and would be of interest to a psychologist with a cognitive perspective.
