The correct answer would be, Mental Set.

Charlie's shortsightedness best illustrates the consequences of Mental Set.

Explanation:

In Psychology, a mental set is basically a framework. This framework is for thinking about the problem. The mental state can be shaped either by:

  • Habit or
  • Desire

Mental set used to solve a problem in the right manner will lead to creativity and problem solving proficiency but using it in a wrong manner will lead to the creation of problems.

As given in the example in this question, Charlie used to cheat in exams when he was in prior classes, but now as he proceeds to the next classes, it has not become easy for him to cheat easily, but he started to find out other ways to cheat which would not be difficult for him. So this is the mental set of Charlie, that he will cheat rather than studying hard, and for this mental set, he would do wrong things.
