题目材料：

Research shows that people often retain beliefs based on prior incorrect understanding when reading texts that contradict those beliefs. Yet readers do not reliably call upon accurate prior knowledge when reading false statements. Prentice, Gerrig, and Bailis asked subjects to read a narrative that included some obviously false statements presented as though true.Participants were later asked to verify the truth of various statements and took longer than expected to reject false ones. Studies of this type suggest that readers may initially accept everything they read as true and only afterward reconcile false propositions with respect to their prior knowledge. In some cases, this reconciliation may be far from perfect, such that readers believe new false information may have actually been derived from their prior knowledge.

Which of the following can be inferred about the study conducted by Prentice, Gerrig, and Bailis?

AThey set out to study one phenomenon and ended up examining a phenomenon that was related but different.
BThey conducted their study by asking participants to read texts that discussed subject matter on which the participants were unlikely to have strong views.
CThey found evidence that people are more likely to retain incorrect beliefs that are contradicted by a written text than to reject false statements in a written text.
DThey designed their study to test a particular hypothesis that their findings did not ultimately support.
EThey began with an estimate of the time that participants would take to evaluate and reject false statements that were contrary to participants' prior knowledge.
