Answer:
4. fundamental attribution error
Explanation:
In psychology, the fundamental attribution error refers to the tendency to attribute another’s actions to their character or personality instead of attributing them to external factors. On the other side, this same tendency makes us attribute our own behavior to external situational factors and not to our own personality.
In this example, Kara gets an F and she gets into an argument with her roommate, who assumes Kara is yelling at him because she likes to bully him (internal attribution) instead of thinking she might have had a bad day (which would be an external factor), therefore, he is making a fundamental attribution error.
Answer:4. fundamental attribution error
Explanation:
The fundamental attribution error which is all referred to as overattribution effect,occurs when someone does something and we attribute their action to their personality while we put less focus on situational issues that might have caused them to behave that way.
For example someone get provoked and respond back by hitting that person whom provoked them and we say it because he is an agressive person and neglect the fact that it might be because he was provoked. We tend to sometimes neglect environmental and societal factors that may contribute in someone' s suddenly change of behavior.
Lee is doing the same she is focused on personality based explanation of Kara's behavior without considering situational explanation that maybe some thing else happened to Kara like having a bad day; which happens sometimes to most people.
