Presentation transcript:

WARM UP What is your understanding of ‘victim blaming’? How do you feel when this happens? Is it justified at times?

OBJECTIVE We will identify and describe all 5 biases in the attribution process. You will reflect on a time in which you demonstrated or experienced one of these biases. Finally, you will judge which bias is the most harmful or helpful and describe why.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION  How do we explain the behaviors of both ourselves and others? What are some implications of this process?

REVIEW INTERNAL (DISPOSITIONAL) ATTRIBUTION: low consensus, high consistency, low distinctiveness EXTERNAL (SITUATIONAL) ATTRIBUTION: High consensus, high consistency CONSISTENCY- CONSENSUS- DISTINCTIVENESS: high consensus, high distinctiveness

5 BIASES Results: Fundamental Attribution Error : overestimating internal influences and underestimating external (situational) influences when judging the behavior of others. “He is poor because he is lazy.”

ACTOR OBSERVER BIAS: Attributing your own behavior to external causes and the behavior of others to internal causes: “I didn’t do well on the exam because I didn’t study, but she didn’t do well because she is just not good at math” SELF-SERVING BIAS: Attributing success to internal factors and failures to external factors: “I won the game because I’m really great…I lost the other game because of the ref.” Just World Hypothesis: belief that good people are rewarded and bad people are punished: “She deserved to be assaulted because she wore those revealing clothes- she was asking for it.” False Consensus Effect: tendency to think others share our attitudes more than they actually do: “Everyone must love coffee…”
