MacGyver, a fictional TV hero, is able to solve nearly any problem with duct tape, chewing gum, and some luck. Which of the following cognitive tendencies is one that MacGyver has clearly overcome?a. Functional fixedness
b. Linguistic relativity
c. Mental sets
d. Availability heuristic

a. Functional fixedness

Explanation:

Functional fixedness is a cognitive bias in which one views an approach to a problem in just a single way that is common, while failing to consider the possibility of discovering other approaches to solve a problem. In order words, it explains that the possibility of one finding other ways an object can be useful is hindered by the already known intended uses of that object.

MacGyver, a fictional TV hero who uses duct tape, chewing gum and some luck, is an example of how functional fixedness is overcomed.
