Which type of cognitive bias is being described here ?

a. confirmation bias
b. dunning-kruger effect
c. bizarrness effect
d. none of the above

The correct answer is: C. Bizarrness Effect

Explanation:

The Bizarrness Effect refers to a cognitive bias where individuals tend to remember bizarre information better  than common information. In this instance, Amber recalled that one of the candidates running for governor was arrested in high school for stealing from a craft store, but she does not know or recall more common or relevant information about him, such as his political orientation and proposed policies. The Bizareness Effect occurs because bizarre information triggers emotions such as surprise, amusement or shock, as opposed to common information that usually does not elicit emotion. Since bizarre information triggers emotions, it is more likely to be remembered than common information.
