This question is incomplete, here's the complete question.

Kiran succeeds in getting his children to do chores by using threats. He fails to recognize that kindness would be even more effective in gaining their cooperation. Kiran's shortsightedness best illustrates a consequence of

A) intuition.

B) the availability heuristic.

C) an algorithm.

D) a mental set.

Answer: D) a mental set.

Explanation:

A mental set refers to the constant inclination to apply only solutions that have been previously successful, without considering other possibilities. A mental set may be an obstacle to the problem-solving process because it makes it tough to find better answers. Kiran's tendency to resource to threats becomes an impediment for kindness to be considered an option.
