Answer:

The correct answer is the option 4: A student's lucky shirt helps him do well on a job interview

Step-by-step explanation:

Pseudoscience is the name given to the practises, statements or beliefs that a person established for himself without any base on the science world. That means that this beliefs are incompatible with the scientific method and therefore that are not an absolute truth in what they state.

Therefore that the situation where a student believes that his lucky shirt helps him to do well in the a job interview are totally subjective and not absolutely true.
