Question
Some people wrongly perceive that their dreams predict future events. This is an example of a(n) A. naturalistic correlation B. positive correlation C. negative correlation D. illusory correlation
Solution
This is an example of a(n) D. illusory correlation. Illusory correlation refers to the phenomenon of perceiving a relationship between variables (typically people, events, or behaviors) even when no such relationship exists. In this case, people are perceiving a relationship between their dreams and future events, which is not a scientifically supported correlation.
