Fundamental attribution error defines a tendency to underestimate the effects of external or situational causes of behavior and to overestimate the effects of internal or personal causes.

Fundamental attribution error (FAE), also referred to as correspondence bias or attribution effect in social psychology, is the propensity for people to overemphasise dispositional and personality-based explanations for an individual's observed behaviour while underplaying situational and environmental explanations. The term "tendency to believe that what people do reflects who they are" has been used to characterise this effect, which is the tendency to overattribute people's actions (what they do or say) to their personalities and underattribute them to the circumstance or context. The mistake is in assuming that someone's actions are exclusively indicative of their personality rather than that they are partly indicative of it and primarily by external factors.

True or False and why: River travel between the East coast and the new settlements in the West was the easiest way to move peopl
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

America used canals and boat travel to move people and goods from the North to the South and vise-versa. Not from the East to the West. There were no large bodies of water, let alone rivers, to transport people and goods from the East to the West. This is why the idea of a transcontinental railroad was so attractive to America during the mid-19th century, after the invention of the steam engine. Railroads were fast and could conduct trade and transportation  much quicker than most boats could, so after being built, railroads were the main method of transportation from the East to the West, and much conflict would arise in the coming future because of this.

melomori [17]

Answer:

coercive

Explanation:

coercive power is the capability to force any one to follow any order even if he is not willing to follow that order. This power is exercised via use of punishment mechanism i.e if anyone disobeys the order he will be penalized , penalty  is pre-decided one.
