Answer 1

Answer:

Errors and biases in attribution

Explanation:

An attribution bias or attributional bias is described in Psychology as reflecting a cognitive bias which refers to the systematic errors which occur when individuals evaluate or try to find reasons/causes for their own and others' behaviors. Attribution bias points to the reality that people are not always objective in perceiving their social word such as how Vicki has rushed to conclude that Monica was sacked because she was an inferior employee.
