In class, we discussed an experiment in which participants were asked to imagine that they were developing new camping tent material and found out that a competitor had already developed a superior material. Then, the $1$st group of participants was offered to sell the material they developed to a roofer for $$5,000$ and asked whether they would abandon their project. The $2$ nd group of participants was offered to sell their material as scrap for $$5,000$ and asked whether they would abandon their project. The $2$ nd group refused selling their material and decided to continue working on this project further.

Which of the following statement$($s$)$ is $($are$)$ true about the decision$-$making strategies used by the participants of this experiment?

Statement A$.$ The $1$st group made a fundamental attribution error

Statement B$.$ The $1$st group used the availability heuristic

Statement $C.$ The $1$st group demonstrated escalation of commitment

Statement D$.$ The $2$nd group made a fundamental attribution error

Statement E$.$ The $2$nd group used the availability heuristic

Statement $F.$ The $2$ nd group demonstrated escalation of commitment

Statement $B$ and Statement $D$ are true

Only Statement $F$ is true

Statement A and Statement $E$ are true

Only Statement $A$ is true

Statements C and Statement D are true
