Actor Observer bias being biased towards analysing people's, own behaviour. This further implies, attributing other's behaviour to their personality traits & attributing one's own behaviour to external circumstances.
Example : Such statements of a person
If others litter on public places, they are irresponsible & socially un-considerate
If they themselves litter on public places, they don't have a disposal dustbin nearby, or it is too inconvenient to access.
For example, if someone is late and he is also apologizing for being late.
Explanation:
An actor-observer bias is a type of bias that explains how we interact with other people and make perceptions about them.
For example, if someone is late and he is also apologizing for being late, but you have assumed him to be a latecomer, and you might think he has no regard neither for you nor for your time.
People don't tend to succumb to this bias with their close friends and family members.
