Explanation:

Gerald assumes the Lucy is a poor performer and never takes her work seriously, based on his previous experiences. In spite of exhibiting better performances in other projects, he refuses to work with her based on his assumptions. Gerald's behavior is an example of selective perception. Selective perception can be defined as the mechanism or process where individuals see things on the basis of their own frame of references. People see things what they want to see. They made different point of views about different things purely on the basis on their own past experiences, exposures or information. They do not want to see the actual reality. Same is the case in this particular scenario where Gerald has assumed that Lucy is a poor performer and will not work hard hard in any case and any way, therefore, he refuses to work with her on the basis of his selective perception.
