Kelley's theory of attribution posits that people make causal attributions after gathering information about three dimensions of consensus (how other people behave in similar situations), distinctiveness (how the individual behaves in different situations), and consistency (how the individual behaves in the same situation over time). These dimensions help individuals determine the cause of a particular behavior or event.
