People who have a slip may be more likely to relapse if they attribute their slip to __________.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If someone attributes their slip to a personal weakness, they may feel helpless and lose confidence in their ability to continue with their sobriety, increasing the likelihood of a relapse. However, if they attribute it to an external or transient event, they may be more likely to view it as a one-time occurrence and continue with their efforts towards sobriety. Similarly, blaming someone else may also not be helpful for taking responsibility for one's actions and making necessary changes to prevent future slips.
