Resource summary
Fundamental Attribution Error
tendency to attribute causes of other people's behaviour to dispositional factors
bias not error - judgement often accurate
may reflect usefulness of dispositional attributions when predicting behaviour on other occasions / situations
overgeneralisation - we do acknowledge situational causes for others behaviour
actor / observer effect: tend to make situational attributions about our own behaviour
Storms showed people observing their own behaviour on video tended to make dispositional attributions - suggesting a perceptual explanation for FAE
change in perceptual perspective led to change in causal attribution
people take into account information with perceptual salience: FAE explained by situation having more salience when attributing cause of own behaviour
American adults show FAE - Indian Hindus do not: suggesting culture influences perceptual salience
may be explained by emphasis on individual in US and on group in less individualist cultures - leading to a focus on causes outside the individual
important in identifying one of the biases that influence interpretation of the causes of behaviour
