Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Attribution theory suggests that when individuals observe behaviour, they attempt to determine whether it is internally (caused by personal factors) or externally (caused by situational factors) caused. Self-serving bias refers to the tendency to attribute one's successes to internal factors and failures to external factors. The fundamental attribution error refers to the tendency to overemphasize internal factors and underestimate external factors when explaining the behavior of others. Selective behavior theory is not a recognized psychological theory or concept.
