From the photo, the author saw an example of the perseverance effect, which are beliefs imprinted in one's mind. While shopping at a mall, the author noticed one Japanese restaurant was crowded with customers in line, believing it had better food, according to past experience. However, the author's parents chose the less crowded restaurant since they were in a hurry, and the author found the food and price were also good. Sometimes people stick to preexisting beliefs and don't try alternatives, following the crowd, which demonstrates the perseverance effect.
