B). Context effects.

Explanation:

'Context effects' is demonstrated as the domain of cognitive psychology that lay emphasis on revealing the impact of environmental aspects in determining how an individual views or perceives a particular stimulus.

As per the question, 'context effect' is being illustrated through the portrayal of effect of environment (in the grocery store) on Sue Yen's inability to recognize her chemistry professor. She has always viewed her as a professor teaching in her class and thus, could not expect her to be at a grocery store. Therefore, the environmental changes have led her to this situation that exemplify the 'context effect'. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
