Explanatory style refers to the pattern of attributions that individuals use to explain events in their lives, and a characteristic of this style is the tendency to use similar causal attributions across a variety of events. This can be either optimistic (such as attributing positive events to internal, stable and global causes) or pessimistic (such as attributing negative events to internal, stable and global causes).
