Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Kelley's covariation model, when consistency is low, we tend to make situational attributions for someone's behavior. In this scenario, Remy's sister is acting in a way that is not typical for her, so the behavior is not consistent with her typical behavior. Therefore, Remy is likely making a situational attribution for her behavior.
