Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Overgeneralization involves making a broad conclusion based on limited evidence or a single negative event. Option C reflects this by implying that failure is an expected outcome every time the person tries something new. The other options do not necessarily indicate a broad conclusion based on limited evidence. Option A suggests the person has evidence (i.e., the other person's behavior) to support the idea that they are hated. Option B is a general statement about the person's life without necessarily indicating limited evidence or a single negative event. Option D acknowledges success in one subject but implies that there is room for improvement in another, but it does not necessarily indicate overgeneralization.
