William meets kate. they both share many of the same beliefs and interests. based on the effects of similarity on attraction, which of the following is most likely to be william’s reaction? a. william will be more likely to trust kate than he would a stranger. b. william will be more attracted to kate than he would a stranger. c. william will be more likely to love kate than he would a stranger. d. william will be more likely to distrust kate than he would a stranger.     \

Similarity-Attraction Effect is the tendency of an individual to like or get attracted to someone similar to himself in most important aspects.

Therefore, the answer is obviously B. William will get more attracted to Kate than he would a stranger.

It can't be letter A since it focuses on "TRUST". Attraction does not necessarily lead to trust unless fed up with positive traits and desirable behaviors. The statement centers on the first meet up so attraction should be the prevailing effect of this. 

C is almost similar to A, however, "LOVE" is the main focus here. There's no such thing as "love at first met". Love takes time. Even psychologists themselves prove this. What they feel at that moment is nothing but attraction. Attraction grows is infatuation. And infatuation grows would eventually lead to "LOVE". 

D is actually a negative outcome, therefore it can never be the answer, not even one of your options as an answer. How could a man distrust someone he shares the same beliefs and interests?

Based on the effects of similarity on attraction, the most likely to be William’s reaction is that B. William will be more attracted to Kate than he would a stranger. This is called similarity-attraction in which the person is attracted to another person because they are similar to each other.

This is true hope this
