Reading Comp- Details in Answer Choices

I'm confused as to, in question 1 of this section asking about the main point of the article about juries, answer #1 is correct? It seemed right to me upon first read, but then I noticed that the answer specifically is speaking about predictable situations, and I don't see where this information is listed in the passage. From the first paragraph, I assumed it would be the opposite, with UNpredictable situations leading to the jury being more likely to make inferential errors...

Hi, I would look to the third paragraph for that info. The passage does tell us that there are predictable situation in which inferential errors are more common, which is a big part of why and how the author thinks we may be able to help mitigate the issue.

Are there answer explanations for each question? These passage explanations, etc., were mentioned in the training videos.
