Answer:

A- Schemas

Step-by-step explanation:

Schemas are used to categorize information and draw conclusions, based on patterns and the relationships between them. In this case, you see your new roommate looking and behaving the way we believe an intellectual person would and you automatically assume that he/she is intellectual.
