Which part of the following sentence contains a spelling error? The phenomenon of pareidolia (1) is often discussed in relation to human cognition (2) and perceptual baises (3) in neuroscience literature (4).
(3)
The task is to find the single numbered part of the sentence that contains a spelling mistake, checking each part in turn.
Part (1) is 'The phenomenon of pareidolia'; 'phenomenon' and 'pareidolia' are both spelt correctly.
Part (2) is 'is often discussed in relation to human cognition'; every word there, including 'cognition', is correctly spelt.
Part (4) is 'in neuroscience literature'; 'neuroscience' and 'literature' are both correct.
Part (3) is 'and perceptual baises'; the word 'baises' is a misspelling of 'biases', where the correct order of vowels is 'i' before 'a' (b-i-a-s-e-s).
Since the error of transposed vowels lies only in 'baises', the faulty part must be (3).
Hence the part with the spelling error is (3)
