Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An optimistic explanatory style involves viewing successes as a result of one's own abilities and efforts, and viewing failures as temporary and external. Therefore, attributing success primarily to teammates does not align with this style, as it suggests externalizing the reasons for success rather than internalizing them as personal ability or effort.
