Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Explanatory style refers to the ways in which we explain events, such as whether we attribute them to internal or external factors, whether we see them as stable or unstable, and whether we see them as global or specific. Expressive style, on the other hand, concerns the ways in which we express our emotions and reactions to events, such as by laughing, crying, or shouting.
