Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The positivity bias in attribution refers to the tendency for people to attribute positive events to internal, stable, and global causes (such as personal ability or character) and negative events to external, unstable, and specific causes (such as luck or situational factors). Choices A, B, and D all illustrate this bias by highlighting ways in which people tend to see themselves and their abilities in a positive light. Choice C, however, is the opposite of positivity bias, as it suggests that people tend to underestimate their control over outcomes, which is a more negative perspective.
