Question

Answer 1

hindsight

Step-by-step explanation:

In psychology, hindsight bias is defined as the tendency of a person to "overestimate" his or her capability of predicting a particular outcome that couldn't have been predicted in that way.

The hindsight bias tends to affect a person in a manner that how recently he or she has acquired specific knowledge related to something that eventually influences the recollection of his or her past information. It can often lead to developing "false thinking".

The question above describes "hindsight bias".
