Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Jean is demonstrating self-serving bias by taking credit for her success but blaming others or external factors for her failures. The fundamental attribution error would involve attributing the behavior of others to their internal traits rather than considering situational factors. Consensus and distinctiveness refer to factors that can help determine whether behavior is due to internal or external factors but are not relevant to Jean's behavior in this scenario.
