Question

Attribution theory is which of the following?

Answer 1

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

The attribution theory suggests that people tend to pass judgment about the behaviors of others as well as their own. It is assuming the reason behind the action or behavior of others.

For example, if you and your friend planned to go out for a movie and he later phoned and said that he could not come. What will you assume or attribute this action of your friend? This assumption that we make is known as the attribution theory.

The theory of attribution was first proposed by Heider in 1958 but later was developed by Jones and Davis, in their inference theory, and Kelley's Covariation Model theory.

So, the correct option from the choices is B.
