In the Prisoner's Dilemma and the Commons Dilemma, people are tempted to explain their own behavior situationally (i.e. as a response to the specific circumstance they are in) and others' behavior dispositionally (i.e. as a reflection of their personality or character). This is because people tend to see themselves as reasonable and considerate, while perceiving others as selfish or thoughtless. Therefore, they are more likely to attribute their own actions to external factors, such as the situation at hand, and other people's actions to internal factors, such as their inherent traits or values.
