Answer 1

Answer:

Dis-positional attribution

Explanation:

Dis-positional attribution characteristics are in which the cause and the responsibility of such behavior can be assigned to the external factor of forces is called dis-positional attribution behavior. When external sources have to be blamed for a particular behavior. This behavior is used to explain other behavior rather than self behavior. For example, if someone getting late for the office he will blame the jam to be getting late rather than his behavior.  

Thus here Jen's friend was fired from part-time because Jen's think that she has low patience for the job. So it illustrates that of dispositional attributional behavior.
