A researcher claims a false consensus effect occurred because participants who supported a policy estimated 58 percent support and the actual support was 57 percent. Which critique is strongest?
A
The result cannot involve false consensus because the question asks about attitudes.
B
The result must involve obedience because a researcher collected the estimates.
C
The estimate is nearly identical to the actual rate, so the data do not show a meaningful overestimate of agreement.
D
The result must involve deindividuation because participants answered anonymously.
