What is a common psychological quirk related to adopting new methodologies?

  1. Quick adoption and mastery

  2. Denial when a method doesn't solve their problems

  3. Unconditional acceptance

  4. Rejection of traditional methods

The correct answer is: Denial when a method doesn't solve their problems

One common psychological quirk related to adopting new methodologies is denial when a method doesn't solve their problems. This tendency stems from individuals' natural resistance to change, and the desire for a quick solution to their problems. Option A, quick adoption and mastery, may seem appealing, but it is not a common quirk and may be unrealistic as mastery often takes time and practice. Option C, unconditional acceptance, is also not likely as most people are critical thinkers and will question new methodologies before accepting them. Lastly, option D, rejection of traditional methods, may sometimes occur but is not necessarily a common psychological quirk as some traditional methods can still be effective.
