Political participation is one of the most studied aspects of the contemporary development of western democracies. A recent trend focuses the lack of political participation among younger generations. At the same time, the last decades have also witnessed a growth in the share of young European Union (EU) citizens who express alienation, and distrust toward social and political institutions at the national as well as the European level. By studying young people across different countries of the EU, the current study aims to examine if youths’ political passivity is better explained by political apathy or alienation. Our analyses are based on a comparative survey data collected by the Catch-EyoU project comprising approximately 4 454 late adolescents assembled from eight member countries of the EU. Results from logistic regressions predicting non-voting from apathy and alienation support the idea that political passivity is best understood as the result of political apathy. Moreover, it seems that the underlying separator of apathetic and alienated youths is cognitive awareness of political life. These results are discussed in relation to potentially built-in paradoxes of apathy present in efficient and well-functional welfare-state democracies.

Answer:Covariation Model
Explanation:
Covariation Model is an attribution that considers our explanation of other people behavior based on social perception and self percetions.
These are intended that we make about others behavior and our own
When we want to explain the behavior of others we focus on similarities (covariation)
There are three particular types of information we consider to make our attribution
Consensus: we consider how similar the reaction of others to the same stimulus
Distinctiveness: how similar is the diffrent reaction to the same stimulus
Consistency: how often the same stimulus and response in the same situation are perceived.
Internal attribution are a result of a low consensus and distinctiveness with high consistency.
External attribution result when all these aspects are high
