This can be reduced if people
suspect and take into consideration possible external factors or are motivated
to use more effort in accurately viewing the situation. This stems from the
knowledge that Fundamental Attribution Error or the Correspondence Bias (though
some psychologists think they should not be used interchangeably) means that you
are undeservedly explaining persons behavior by some internal factors
(character or intention) instead of outside, external factors but when you do
the same thing you will explain it by external factors. For example, if a person
A is cut off in traffic by person B, the person A will think it is because person B is mean, selfish or something similar instead of taking into
consideration that he maybe had to make the green light or his wife was giving
birth or he was late. If a person A did that they would look at the external
factors like being late and not because they are bad at driving or an unpleasant
person. So basically you need to be more considerate and try to understand why would
someone do something instead jumping to conclusions.
Everything is shown on the sticky note :D
Answer:
Either egocentric or intuitive thinking
Explanation:
Analytic, formal, and operational thinking are all rational and incorporate the knowledge of known data and facts when thinking about something. Egocentric thinking is the "normal tendency for a young child to see everything that happens as it relates to him- or herself", but it is <em>NOT</em> selfishness. Intuitive thinking is "a feeling (a sense) that doesn't use rational processes such as facts and data. Good intuition comes from years of knowledge and experience that allows you to understand how people and the world works. Many situations are intuitive. Some aren't."
It's most likely egocentric thinking.
