Availability heuristic could be such an incident that can come to mind after listening the stories from others. Like, if I have heard the stories of dacoity from my friend in a different location, I could think that this can happen in my location too. Representative heuristic is when I assume after listening the features of a person or observing their innate attitudes. In this case, I have heard one of my colleagues is missing the work deadlines; I have reached to the conclusion that he/she might be looking for another job.
