Answer:
The answers to fill in the blanks in this question, would be: Martha wins three games of backgammon in a row, even though she has never played before. If Martha assumes she has "beginners luck", she is making an external unstable attribution about her success; if she decides backgammon is an easy game, she is making an external stable attribution about her success.
Explanation:
Attributions are simply defined as the way that people explain the how and the why of actions and behaviors when confronted by a particular situation. From this, a theory was derived called the Theory of Attributions, which focused on how people explain actions and reactions depending on how themselves, and their environments play a role in how these actions and reactions are expressed. As such, there are four spheres: the internal and external attributions, which means, whether it is the internal part of the person (personality, abilities, innate skills) which play the major role, or if it is external factors that play the major role in expressing actions and reaction. The further two spheres are the stable and unstable attributions. These two explain how people perceive whether it is a stable factor, or an unstable one, that forces an action and reaction. These four spheres can be combined and in the case of Martha they do. The first is external unstable because she believes her winning comes from the luck she has out of pure chance, something flitting and that can disappear at any moment, so it is external and unstable. The second is external because the reason for her being good is not due to her abilities but the game being easy, and it is stable because this will not change.
The shade (ghost or spirit) of Elpenor, one of Odysseus' men whom he spoke to in Hades, begged Odysseus to give him the proper funeral rites. The Greeks believed that a soul suffered and could not be at rest unless it was properly buried (this was the impetus for the plot of Antigone). Since Odysseus had promised to give him all the proper funeral rites, he needed to go back to Circe's island to do so
