When two friends, who support two different political parties, only quote statistics that support their favorite political party’s strengths but not its weaknesses, which type of perception do they demonstrate?

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

When two friends, who support two different political parties, only quote statistics that support their favorite political party’s strengths but not its weaknesses, which type of perception do they demonstrate?

a.  Selective retention

b.  Selective exposure

c.  Selective distortion

d.  Selective perception

The type of perception which they demonstrate is:

a.  Selective retention .

Explanation:

Selective retention can be explained as a tendency people have to only retain information partially. The part retained usually supports a belief or attitude those people already possess. That means they only focus and memorize what is convenient to their own beliefs. On the other hand, information that contradicts such beliefs and attitudes ends up being forgotten or discarded. Notice that that's the case with the two friends. They only quote statistics that support their party's strength. They have focused on the pieces of information that confirm their beliefs.

uses : -

1.aneroid barometers primarily measure whether pressure is rising or falling.

2.aneroid barometers are often used for reading pressure in homes and recreational boats.  

3.other uses may include barographs in meteorology and altimeters in modern aircraft.  

4.this type of barometer can announce whether a high or low pressure system is coming or whether it is becoming more intense.  

5.there are different types of aneroid barometers, such as the altimeter, which measures altitude, or distance above sea level.  

6.another example is a barograph, which is a modified aneroid barometer that provides constant readings of atmospheric pressure on graph paper.  

7.when used in this capacity, the aneroid barometer can store a week's worth of data.

android diameter a device for measuring atmospheric pressure , often specially calibrated for use as an altimeter ,consisting of a box or chamber partially exhaused of air, having an elastic top and a pointer to indicate the degree of compression of the top caused by the external air
