Consider the following passage: Some people think that you should try new things even if you know you will fail, for the sake of experience. I disagree. If you try something and fail, you will embarrass yourself! Plus, your failure could ruin your reputation, preventing you from getting more opportunities. Besides, if you try something and fail, you'll waste time that you could have spent on a better chance of success. What is assumed when the claim "You will embarrass yourself if you try something and fail" is used to support the claim that you should not try something if you know you will fail? The risk of embarrassing yourself will outweigh any possible benefits of experience Embarrassing yourself will hurt your self-confidence You should not do anything that will cause you to embarrass yourself You should not embarrass yourself and risk ruining your reputation You should not do anything that might hurt your reputation

Dylan is working at the bakery and is told that he needs to finish more rolls than he usually does by 6 am. His boss then tells him to stop washing his hands between breaks and baking to save time. Dylan knows this is an unsafe idea health-wise but feels like his boss is to blame if something happens, so he goes ahead and does it. Over time, he comes to believe that this is a good practice to put into place. How would social psychologists explain Dylan's behavior?
