单词 | attribution theory |
释义 | attribution theorynoun psychology : a theory that attempts to explain the interpretive process by which people make judgments about the causes of their own behavior and the behavior of others After studying how people explain others' behavior, Fritz Heider (1958) proposed an attribution theory. Heider noted that people usually attribute others' behavior either to their internal dispositions or to their external situations. David G. Myers, Psychology, 2001 Indeed, in accordance with tenets of attribution theory, teachers may be most apt to reject students whom they perceive as being able, yet unwilling, to control undesired behavior.
