The acceptance of stock, positive descriptions of your personality, such as your horoscope, may be partly due to .

A. a self-serving bias.
B. unconditional positive regard.
C. an external locus of control.
D. an inferiority complex.
E. a high degree of neuroticism.

I believe the best option is letter A. self-serving bias.

Explanation:

We can reach that conclusion through elimination. Let's analyze each option:

Self-serving bias refers to the tendency we may have of perceiving ourselves favorably. It is a distortion in cognitive or perceptual processes, allowing us to increase our self-esteem. This seems to be the best option when it comes to accepting positive descriptions of our personality.

Unconditional positive regard is a technique used by psychotherapists in which they show acceptance of their patients, without any judgment or bias. That is not connect to the description in the question.

Inferiority complex results from lack of self-esteem and security. People with this complex tend to think they are not good enough, which leads them to overcompensate. That is also not the case in the question.

Finally, neuroticism refers to a tendency to be in anxious or negative emotional states. Thus, neurotic people show anger, frustration, anxiety, envy etc. more frequently than other people. This does not refer to the description in the question.
