In the following set of words, which does not belong: Dentist, Economist, Surgeon, Layman, Neuropsychologist?

Economist
Surgeon
Layman
Neuropsychologist

The correct answer is: Layman

The word that does not belong in the set is "Layman." All the other terms—Dentist, Economist, Surgeon, and Neuropsychologist—refer to professionals who have received specialized training and education in specific fields related to health (Dentist, Surgeon, Neuropsychologist) or economics (Economist). In contrast, "Layman" refers to someone who is not a member of a particular profession or specialized field. It describes a person who has no specialized knowledge or expertise in the subject matter, making it fundamentally different from the other words, which denote professions requiring advanced qualifications and training. This distinction highlights why "Layman" stands out, as it does not represent a trained or professional individual within a designated field.
