Why do we sometimes skip the second step in making attributions?
A) The first step usually leads to highly accurate attributions, so there is no need to move on to the second step most of the time.
B) Information about consensus and consistency are usually enough to make attributions; distinctiveness is not that helpful.
C) Our attributions are based primarily on distinctiveness. Adding in consensus and consistency usually does not increase the accuracy of attributions.
D) We may lack the time, energy, and motivation to consider revising our initial attributions.
E) Situational forces are too powerful and tend to dominate the attributional process.
