Here "Overriding influence" is the key to answer the issue.
Overriding influence = the scientists are stressing/maneuvering something that they shouldn't/need not to do forcefully;
This means the 1st blank is in a Negative Tone; among 3 choices for Blank 1--> Prejudice sounds okay and Theories: not good enough and Instruments: not suitable at all.
Blank I = (A) Prejudice
So, the 2nd blank follows the 1st blank's tone=Negative;
Only D=Impairment fits best while Coloration = irrelevant and Reinforcement = positive tone.
Blank II = (D) Impairment
