This is an example of framing, which is the way information is presented can influence the decisions people make. The two statements convey the same information, but the way they are presented can influence how people perceive the situation. Option A is framed positively with a focus on the high chance of success, while the second statement is framed negatively with a focus on the chance of failure. This can influence people to choose Option A due to the positive framing.
