Consensus refers to whether other people exhibit the same behavior in response to a particular stimulus. In this case, everyone responding to the fire truck's siren is indicative of high consensus, making option B the best choice. Consistency refers to whether the person exhibits the behavior regularly in response to the same stimulus and distinctiveness refers to whether the person exhibits the same behavior in response to different stimuli. Selective perception refers to how people selectively interpret and remember events based on their own biases and expectations. Contrast effects refer to how people's perceptions of stimuli are influenced by comparisons with other stimuli. None of these concepts are clearly demonstrated in the given scenario.
