People who have a more _____ explanatory style recover more quickly from failure or negative life pressures.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An optimistic explanatory style attributes negative events to external, temporary causes (something outside of oneself, and that will pass) rather than internal, stable causes (something within oneself, and that will always be present). This type of thinking leads to a more positive outlook on life and quicker recovery from setbacks.
