Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fundamental attribution error refers to the tendency to overestimate dispositional factors (personality, character) and underestimate situational factors (environment, context) when explaining others' behavior. Option D is the only choice that captures this pattern, as it overestimates dispositional factors on others (e.g. "they must be lazy") and underestimates situational factors on oneself (e.g. "I'm just having a bad day"). The other options either mix up the direction of the error or include choices that do not fit with the error (e.g. option A includes dispositional factors on oneself, which is not part of the fundamental attribution error).
