Abhay Sharma answered |
Analysis of the options:
a) Forming: This stage involves the initial coming together of the group members. It is characterized by politeness, uncertainty, and a desire to be accepted by others. During this stage, members may avoid conflicts and focus on building relationships.
b) Alarming: This option is not associated with the stages of group formation. The term "alarming" does not represent a recognized stage in group formation.
c) Storming: This stage is marked by conflicts, disagreements, and power struggles among group members. Individuals may have differing opinions and try to establish their positions within the group. This stage can be challenging but is necessary for the group to move forward.
d) Performing: This stage represents the point at which the group members have resolved their conflicts and established their roles and norms. The group is now able to work together efficiently and effectively towards achieving their goals.
Explanation:
The correct answer is option b) Alarming. The term "alarming" is not commonly used or recognized in the context of group formation. It does not represent a stage that is typically associated with the development of a group.
The stages of group formation are widely recognized and studied in the field of psychology and organizational behavior. The most commonly accepted stages are forming, storming, norming, and performing.
During the forming stage, group members come together for the first time, and there is a focus on getting to know each other and building relationships. This stage is characterized by politeness, uncertainty, and a desire for acceptance.
The storming stage is where conflicts and disagreements arise. Group members may have different opinions and try to establish their positions within the group. This stage can be challenging but is necessary for the group to move forward and resolve conflicts.
The norming stage is when the group members start to establish common norms, values, and expectations. They develop a sense of cohesion and begin to work together more effectively.
Finally, the performing stage is when the group members have resolved their conflicts and established their roles and norms. The group is now able to work together efficiently and effectively towards achieving their goals.
In conclusion, the term "alarming" is not associated with the stages of group formation. The recognized stages are forming, storming, norming, and performing.

The rationale is that the client’s distress has its origins in the biological, psychological, and social realms. Hence, addressing the biological aspects through relaxation procedures, the psychological ones through behaviour therapy and cognitive therapy techniques and the social ones with environmental manipulations makes CBT a comprehensive technique which is easy to use, applicable to a variety of disorders, and has proven efficacy

How would you know that someone has been listening? Ask her/him to restate what you had said. The person in doing this does not repeat your exact words. S/he makes a summary of the ideas just received and provides you with a restatement of what s/he understands. This is called ‘paraphrasing’.

Projective techniques comprise inkblot methods, storytelling methods, figure drawing methods, and sentence completion methods. In addition to being less structured than objective measures, these four types of projective methods differ from each other in their degree of ambiguity which often resides mainly in their stimuli or in their instruction.Q.

Pro social behavior cannot be explained by:- a)Norm of reciprocity

Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?
Pro social behavior cannot be explained by:
a)
Norm of reciprocity
b)
Norm of equity
c)
Norm of responsibility
d)
Norm of intellectual understanding
|

Dipanjan Desai answered |
Explanation:
Norm of Intellectual Understanding
Pro social behavior refers to actions that benefit others or society as a whole. These behaviors are often guided by social norms that dictate how individuals should behave in certain situations. However, the norm of intellectual understanding is not a commonly recognized social norm that influences pro social behavior.
Norm of Reciprocity
The norm of reciprocity is the expectation that if someone does something for us, we should do something in return. This norm often motivates individuals to engage in pro social behavior as they feel obligated to reciprocate kind actions.
Norm of Equity
The norm of equity is the belief that individuals should be treated fairly and equally. This norm can also influence pro social behavior as individuals may feel compelled to help others in order to create a more equitable society.
Norm of Responsibility
The norm of responsibility is the belief that individuals have a duty to help others and contribute to the well-being of society. This norm plays a significant role in motivating pro social behavior as individuals feel a sense of responsibility to support those in need.
In conclusion, while norms such as reciprocity, equity, and responsibility play important roles in shaping pro social behavior, the norm of intellectual understanding is not typically a primary factor in explaining why individuals choose to engage in actions that benefit others.

Structure-of-Intellect Model Classification by J.P. Guilford
Guilford's structure-of-intellect model is classified into three main categories:
Operations
- Operations refer to the mental processes involved in thinking, such as cognition, memory retrieval, and problem-solving.
- This category focuses on how individuals carry out cognitive tasks and the strategies they use to process information.
Contents
- Contents pertain to the specific information or knowledge that individuals possess.
- This category includes the various types of knowledge stored in long-term memory, such as facts, concepts, and principles.
Products
- Products are the outcomes or results of intellectual activity.
- This category involves the creative or practical applications of knowledge and skills, such as writing a poem, solving a math problem, or designing a new invention.
By classifying the structure of intellect into operations, contents, and products, Guilford aimed to provide a comprehensive framework for understanding and studying human intelligence. This model allows for a more detailed analysis of the various components involved in intellectual functioning, leading to a better understanding of how individuals think, learn, and solve problems.

Atharva Banerjee answered |
The correct answer is option 'C' - Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire.
The Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF) is a widely used psychological test that assesses an individual's personality traits. It was developed by psychologist Raymond Cattell in the 1940s and has since been revised and expanded upon.
The 16PF measures personality across sixteen primary factors, which are further divided into secondary factors. These factors include warmth, reasoning, emotional stability, dominance, liveliness, rule-consciousness, social boldness, sensitivity, vigilance, abstractedness, privateness, apprehension, openness to change, self-reliance, perfectionism, and tension.
Career Guidance:
The 16PF has been found extremely useful in career guidance due to its ability to provide insights into an individual's personality traits that are relevant to different occupations. By understanding an individual's strengths, weaknesses, and preferences, career counselors can make more informed recommendations regarding suitable career paths. For example, someone high in dominance and self-reliance may be well-suited for leadership positions, while someone high in sensitivity and social boldness may thrive in customer service roles.
Vocational Exploration:
Vocational exploration involves exploring different career options and identifying one's interests, skills, and values. The 16PF can help individuals gain a deeper understanding of their personality traits and how they align with various career paths. This assessment can provide valuable insights into an individual's vocational interests, preferences, and potential areas of growth.
Occupational Testing:
Occupational testing involves assessing an individual's suitability for a specific job or role. The 16PF can be used to identify personality traits that are desirable for certain occupations. For example, jobs that require high levels of emotional stability and rule-consciousness, such as law enforcement or accounting, may benefit from individuals who score high in those traits. By using the 16PF in occupational testing, employers can make more informed decisions regarding hiring and job placement.
In conclusion, the Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF) is extremely useful in career guidance, vocational exploration, and occupational testing. It provides valuable insights into an individual's personality traits, helping career counselors, individuals, and employers make informed decisions regarding career choices and job suitability.

Delusion of Reference: Understanding the Phenomenon
Delusion of reference is a psychiatric condition where individuals believe that random events, objects, or behaviors of others are specifically directed at them. This can lead to feelings of being watched, talked about, or targeted in some way. One common manifestation of delusion of reference is the belief that people are talking about the individual behind their back or in coded language.
Explanation of the Correct Answer
- Option A: They hear people talking about them or attach meaning to the actions of others: This option accurately describes the experience of individuals with delusion of reference. They may perceive innocent conversations or actions of others as being directed towards them, even when this is not the case. This can lead to paranoia, anxiety, and a distorted view of reality.
- Option B: They are being persecuted by people: While persecution delusions are another common type of delusion, this does not specifically relate to delusion of reference. Persecution delusions involve the belief that one is being harmed or harassed by others, which is different from feeling that others are talking about or referencing them.
- Option C: They are being loved by people: This option does not align with the typical experiences of individuals with delusion of reference. While delusions of grandeur or being loved by famous individuals can occur in some cases, it is not a defining feature of delusion of reference.
- Option D: They have weak memory and do not remember events: This option is unrelated to delusion of reference. Delusion of reference is not typically linked to memory issues but rather involves misinterpretation of external stimuli.
In conclusion, the correct answer is Option A as it accurately captures the core experience of individuals with delusion of reference.

Persecution delusions involve the belief that one is being harmed or harassed by others, which is different from feeling that others are talking about or referencing them.
- Option C: They are being loved by people: This option does not align with the typical experiences of individuals with delusion of reference. While delusions of grandeur or being loved by famous individuals can occur in some cases, it is not a defining feature of delusion of reference.
- Option D: They have weak memory and do not remember events: This option is unrelated to delusion of reference. Delusion of reference is not typically linked to memory issues but rather involves misinterpretation of external stimuli.
In conclusion, the correct answer is Option A as it accurately captures the core experience of individuals with delusion of reference.

In our day-to day life, we assign certain causes or reasons to a person’s behaviour. This process is called attribution.
Broadly, causes of a person are attributed to internal and external factors. Internal factors are related to situation. With reference to success and failure, Weiner has classified causes into internal/external and stable/ unstable factors. In general, people attribute success to internal factors such as their ability and hard work.
However, failure is attributed to external factors such as task difficulty and bad luck. Ability/fate and hard-work/ task-difficulty are considered as stable and unstable factors respectively. Stable factors refer to those causes that do not change with time. It has been observed that people have a tendency to give greater weightage to internal factors than external one. Tills phenomenon is called the fundamental attribution error. This tendency is stronger in some cultures than in others. Research suggests that Indians tend to make more external attributions than Americans do.Q. As per Weiner, if person A giv es greater weightage to internal factors, then which one of the following will hold tine for A ?- a)The task characteristic
- b)A’s intelligence

In making attributions, there is an overall tendency for people to give greater weightage to internal or dispositional factors, than to external or situational factors. This is called the fundamental attribution error.

Abhay Sharma answered |
To arrange the following in terms of increasing interpersonal physical distance according to Hall, we need to understand the different distances identified by Hall and their corresponding levels of intimacy.
1. Intimate Distance:
- Intimate distance refers to the closest physical distance between individuals.
- It is typically reserved for close relationships such as romantic partners, family members, or very close friends.
- This distance ranges from physical contact to approximately 18 inches.
- In this zone, individuals can perceive each other's breath, body heat, and even touch.
2. Personal Distance:
- Personal distance is the space maintained between individuals in formal or professional relationships.
- It is typically around 18 inches to 4 feet.
- This distance is commonly observed in conversations between colleagues or acquaintances.
- It allows for more personal interaction compared to intimate distance but still maintains a certain level of formality.
3. Social Distance:
- Social distance refers to the distance maintained in social situations.
- It is usually around 4 to 12 feet.
- This distance is observed in casual interactions, such as between strangers or in social gatherings.
- It allows for comfortable conversation without invading personal space.
4. Public Distance:
- Public distance is the furthest interpersonal physical distance.
- It is typically beyond 12 feet.
- This distance is commonly observed in public speaking situations or in large gatherings.
- It creates a sense of formality and reduces the need for personal interaction.
Based on the above explanations, the correct arrangement of the distances in terms of increasing interpersonal physical distance is as follows:
A. Public Distance - This is the furthest distance and provides the highest level of physical separation between individuals.
B. Social Distance - This is the second furthest distance and is commonly observed in casual social interactions.
C. Personal Distance - This is the second closest distance and is maintained in professional or formal relationships.
D. Intimate Distance - This is the closest distance and is reserved for close personal relationships.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A' - C, D, B, A.
1. Intimate Distance:
- Intimate distance refers to the closest physical distance between individuals.
- It is typically reserved for close relationships such as romantic partners, family members, or very close friends.

Dhruba Malik answered |
Explanation:
According to Robert Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence, intelligence is composed of three main components: contextual intelligence, componential intelligence, and experiential intelligence. Each component plays a different role in an individual's intellectual abilities and success in different domains.
1. Contextual Intelligence:
Contextual intelligence refers to the ability to understand and adapt to different environmental contexts. It involves practical knowledge, social skills, and the ability to navigate and succeed in real-world situations. People high on contextual intelligence are good at understanding and using resources effectively in their environment, but this component is not directly related to success in schools or thinking analytically and critically.
2. Emotional Intelligence:
Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to understand and manage one's own emotions and the emotions of others. It involves skills such as empathy, self-awareness, and social awareness. While emotional intelligence is important for interpersonal relationships and emotional well-being, it is not directly related to success in schools or thinking analytically and critically.
3. Componential Intelligence:
Componential intelligence, also known as analytical intelligence, is the component that is most closely related to success in schools and thinking analytically and critically. It involves the ability to analyze, reason, problem-solve, and think critically. People high on componential intelligence are good at logical and analytical thinking, and they excel in academic settings where these skills are valued.
4. Experiential Intelligence:
Experiential intelligence refers to the ability to think creatively and apply knowledge effectively in new and unfamiliar situations. It involves skills such as creativity, insight, and the ability to think outside the box. While experiential intelligence is important for innovation and adaptation, it is not directly related to success in schools or thinking analytically and critically.
Conclusion:
According to Sternberg, persons high on componential intelligence, which is characterized by analytical and critical thinking abilities, are more likely to succeed in schools. This component involves the skills needed for academic success, such as logical reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking.

Observation
Observation is the correct answer as it involves employing systematic, organized and objective procedures to record behavioural phenomena occurring naturally in real time. Let's break down this concept further:
Systematic Approach:
- When conducting observations, researchers follow a structured approach to ensure that data is collected in a consistent and reliable manner.
- This systematic method helps in organizing observations and making comparisons across different instances.
Organized Procedures:
- Researchers establish clear protocols and guidelines for conducting observations.
- These procedures help in ensuring that observations are conducted in a standardized way, reducing bias and increasing the validity of the results.
Objective Recording:
- Observations aim to record behavioural phenomena objectively, without introducing personal biases or interpretations.
- Researchers focus on recording observable behaviors and events as they unfold, without imposing their own judgments.
Real-Time Data Collection:
- Unlike other methods like self-reports or psychological tests, observation involves capturing data as it naturally occurs in real time.
- This real-time data collection provides valuable insights into individuals' behaviors and interactions in their natural environment.
In conclusion, observation is a valuable research method that allows researchers to systematically and objectively record behavioral phenomena in real time. By following organized procedures and maintaining objectivity, researchers can gather valuable data for further analysis and interpretation.

Self-regulation refers to our ability to organize and monitor our own behavior. It involves the processes and strategies that individuals use to control their thoughts, emotions, and actions in order to achieve their goals and adapt to their environment. This ability is crucial for success in various domains of life, including academics, work, relationships, and personal well-being.
The process of self-regulation involves several key components and strategies:
1. Goal Setting: Self-regulated individuals set clear and specific goals for themselves. They identify what they want to achieve and develop a plan of action to reach their goals.
2. Monitoring: Self-regulated individuals regularly monitor their progress towards their goals. They keep track of their actions, behaviors, and outcomes to assess their effectiveness and make necessary adjustments.
3. Self-Reflection: Self-regulated individuals engage in self-reflection to evaluate their performance and identify areas for improvement. They assess their strengths and weaknesses and develop strategies to enhance their performance.
4. Self-Control: Self-regulated individuals have the ability to control their impulses and delay gratification. They resist temptations and distractions that may hinder their progress towards their goals.
5. Self-Motivation: Self-regulated individuals are intrinsically motivated to achieve their goals. They have a strong sense of purpose and are driven by their own values and aspirations.
6. Problem Solving: Self-regulated individuals are effective problem solvers. They analyze challenges and obstacles, develop strategies to overcome them, and seek support and resources when needed.
7. Flexibility: Self-regulated individuals are adaptable and flexible. They are open to new ideas, perspectives, and strategies, and are willing to adjust their approach when necessary.
Overall, self-regulation is a critical skill that enables individuals to take control of their own behavior and achieve their desired outcomes. It requires self-awareness, self-discipline, and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. By developing and practicing self-regulation strategies, individuals can enhance their personal effectiveness, productivity, and well-being.

Phases of Sherif's Summer Camp Experiment:
Friendship Formation (B):
- The first phase of the experiment involved boys forming friendships within their own groups.
- This phase set the foundation for group cohesion and loyalty.
Ingroup Formation (D):
- Once the boys formed friendships within their groups, they started identifying strongly with their own group.
- This phase helped in establishing a sense of belonging and identity within the group.
Intergroup Competition (A):
- Following the formation of ingroups, Sherif introduced competition between the groups.
- This phase created a sense of rivalry and conflict between the groups.
Intergroup Cooperation (C):
- As the competition intensified, Sherif introduced tasks that required cooperation between the groups to succeed.
- This phase aimed to reduce intergroup hostility and promote collaboration.
Therefore, the correct sequence of phases in Sherif's summer camp experiment is B, D, A, C. First, the boys formed friendships within their own groups, then they identified strongly with their ingroup. Subsequently, intergroup competition was introduced, followed by intergroup cooperation to reduce hostility and promote collaboration.

Social Loafing
Social loafing refers to the phenomenon where individuals exert less effort when working in a group compared to when working alone. This can lead to a decrease in individual performance within a group setting.
Experiment by Latane and Associates
In the experiment conducted by Latane and his associates, they observed the impact of group size on individual effort in producing noise. They found that as the group size increased, the amount of noise produced by each participant decreased. This indicates that individuals were putting in less effort when they were part of a larger group.
Factors contributing to Social Loafing
- Diffusion of responsibility: In larger groups, individuals may feel less personally responsible for the outcome, leading to a decrease in effort.
- Evaluation apprehension: Individuals may be less concerned about their performance being evaluated in a larger group, resulting in reduced effort.
- Lack of identifiability: In larger groups, individuals may feel less identifiable and therefore less accountable for their contributions.
Implications of Social Loafing
Social loafing can have negative consequences on group performance, as it can lead to a decrease in overall productivity and quality of work. It is important for group members to be aware of this phenomenon and take steps to mitigate its effects, such as assigning specific roles and responsibilities to each member.

Directions: Please read the passage and answer the questions that follows.
A person’s thinking or behaviour is classified as abnormal if it violates social nouns. Norms are expected behaviour in a group. Every culture has certain standards for accepting behaviour as per socially acceptable norms.
For example - child marriage was a noun about hundred years ago. Those who did not many their girl child like everyone else were considered to be breaking the norm.
The most obvious problem with defining abnormality using social norms is that there is no universal agreement over social norms. Another definition of abnormality states that a person is considered abnormal if he/she is unable to perform the behaviours necessary for day-to-day living eg. self care, holding a job, managing everyday tasks.
We must understand that mental health issues are prevalent in all cultures as there is ignorance and fear about psychological disorders.

Deviance in Abnormal Psychology
Abnormal psychology is the branch of psychology that deals with abnormal behavior and psychopathology. The concept of deviance plays a crucial role in defining abnormality in this field.
Definition of Deviance
Deviance refers to behavior that violates social norms or goes against the expectations of a particular society. In the context of abnormal psychology, a person's thinking or behavior is classified as abnormal if it deviates from what is considered socially acceptable in a given culture or community.
Role of Deviance in Abnormal Psychology
When a person's behavior or thinking is deemed deviant, it may be an indicator of underlying mental health issues or psychological disorders. For example, if someone consistently acts in a way that is contrary to the norms of their society, it may be a sign of a mental health condition that requires attention and treatment.
Importance of Recognizing Deviance
Recognizing deviant behavior is essential in identifying and addressing mental health concerns. By understanding how behavior deviates from social norms, mental health professionals can diagnose and treat individuals who may be struggling with psychological disorders.
In conclusion, the concept of deviance in abnormal psychology highlights the importance of considering social norms and expectations when evaluating a person's behavior or thinking. Deviance serves as a criterion for defining abnormality and identifying potential mental health issues that may require intervention.

Rohit Sharma answered |
Gordon Allport, an American psychologist, developed a trait theory of personality in which he identified three different types of traits that influence a person's behavior: Cardinal Traits, Central Traits, and Secondary Traits.
Cardinal Traits:
Cardinal Traits:
- Highly generalised disposition
- Determines the primary goals and motivations in a person's life
- Rare and not found in every person
- Examples include an extreme level of altruism, selfishness, or ambition
Central Traits:
- Characteristics that make up an individual's core personality
- Common in most people and are easily observable
- Examples include honesty, friendliness, and intelligence
Secondary Traits:
- Less important traits that influence behavior in specific situations
- Not as consistent as central traits
- Examples include preferences, attitudes, and situational reactions
In summary, Gordon Allport considered cardinal traits as highly generalised dispositions that indicate the goal around which a person's entire life seems to revolve.

Kavya Khanna answered |
The correct answer is option 'B': Help to be provided by mindfulness-based meditation
Explanation:
Psychotherapy is a form of treatment that focuses on helping individuals with psychological disorders or emotional difficulties. In the field of psychotherapy, there are several ethical standards that therapists are expected to adhere to ensure the well-being and confidentiality of their clients. These ethical standards guide the therapist's behavior and help to establish a trusting and safe therapeutic relationship.
1. Informed consent needs to be taken:
Informed consent is a fundamental ethical standard in psychotherapy. It involves the therapist providing the client with all relevant information about the therapy process, including the goals, potential risks and benefits, and the client's rights. Informed consent ensures that the client has a clear understanding of what to expect and can make an informed decision about participating in therapy.
2. Confidentiality of the client should be maintained:
Confidentiality is another essential ethical standard in psychotherapy. It requires therapists to keep all information shared by the client during therapy confidential, unless there is a legal or ethical obligation to disclose it. Maintaining confidentiality helps to create a safe and trusting environment for the client to share their thoughts and feelings.
3. Respect for human rights and dignity:
Respecting the human rights and dignity of clients is a core ethical principle in psychotherapy. Therapists are expected to treat their clients with respect, fairness, and non-discrimination. This includes recognizing and valuing the client's autonomy, promoting their well-being, and advocating for their rights.
4. Help to be provided by mindfulness-based meditation:
Mindfulness-based meditation is a technique that can be used as part of psychotherapy. It involves bringing one's attention to the present moment and cultivating a non-judgmental awareness of thoughts, emotions, and sensations. While mindfulness-based meditation can be beneficial in therapy, it is not an ethical standard in itself. The ethical standards focus on the therapist's behavior and responsibilities, rather than specific treatment techniques.
In conclusion, while mindfulness-based meditation can be a helpful tool in psychotherapy, it is not an ethical standard. The ethical standards in psychotherapy primarily focus on informed consent, maintaining confidentiality, and respecting the client's human rights and dignity.

Exposure to Information
One way individuals develop attitudes is through exposure to information. When someone reads biographies of self-actualized persons, they are exposed to the values, beliefs, and behaviors that led to their success. This exposure allows the individual to learn about different perspectives and approaches to achieving success, which can shape their own attitudes and beliefs.
Learning Attitude through Exposure to Information
By learning about the hard work and determination of successful individuals, a person may come to see these qualities as essential for achieving their own goals. This process of learning attitude through exposure to information is powerful because it provides real-life examples of how certain attitudes and behaviors can lead to success. It allows individuals to internalize these lessons and apply them to their own lives.
Impact on Attitude Formation
Exposure to information can have a significant impact on attitude formation. When individuals are exposed to positive examples of success and hard work, they are more likely to adopt similar attitudes and behaviors. This can lead to a more positive outlook on life, a stronger work ethic, and a belief in the power of determination and perseverance.
Conclusion
In conclusion, exposure to information plays a crucial role in attitude formation. By learning about the experiences and attitudes of successful individuals, individuals can develop a positive attitude towards hard work and other aspects of life. This process of learning attitude through exposure to information can be a powerful tool for personal growth and development.

Belief refers to the cognitive component of attitude, and it forms the ground on which attitudes stand. Beliefs are the thoughts, ideas, and convictions that individuals hold about a particular object, person, or situation. They are formed based on personal experiences, information, and social influences.
Beliefs play a crucial role in shaping attitudes because they provide the foundation upon which attitudes are built. Attitudes are a combination of beliefs, emotions, and behaviors that influence how individuals perceive and interact with the world around them. Beliefs serve as the cognitive framework that supports and guides attitudes.
Beliefs can be categorized into two types: descriptive beliefs and evaluative beliefs. Descriptive beliefs refer to the factual information that individuals hold about an object or situation. These beliefs are based on observations, evidence, and personal experiences. For example, if someone believes that exercise is good for health because they have read scientific studies supporting this claim, it would be a descriptive belief.
Evaluative beliefs, on the other hand, involve value judgments and reflect an individual's evaluation or opinion about an object or situation. These beliefs are more subjective and can vary from person to person. For instance, if someone believes that exercise is enjoyable and fulfilling, it would be an evaluative belief.
Beliefs can also be influenced by various factors, such as culture, upbringing, social norms, and personal values. They can be deeply ingrained and resistant to change, but they can also be modified or altered through new information, experiences, and persuasive communication.
In summary, beliefs are the cognitive component of attitude and provide the foundation on which attitudes are built. They encompass both descriptive and evaluative beliefs and play a crucial role in shaping individuals' perceptions, emotions, and behaviors towards objects, people, and situations.

Directions: Please read the passage and answer the questions that follows.
In our day-to day life, we assign certain causes or reasons to a person’s behaviour. This process is called attribution.
Broadly, causes of a person are attributed to internal and external factors. Internal factors are related to situation. With reference to success and failure, Weiner has classified causes into internal/external and stable/ unstable factors. In general, people attribute success to internal factors such as their ability and hard work.
However, failure is attributed to external factors such as task difficulty and bad luck. Ability/fate and hard-work/ task-difficulty are considered as stable and unstable factors respectively. Stable factors refer to those causes that do not change with time. It has been observed that people have a tendency to give greater weightage to internal factors than external one. Tills phenomenon is called the fundamental attribution error. This tendency is stronger in some cultures than in others. Research suggests that Indians tend to make more external attributions than Americans do.Q. Fundamental attribution error is known as a tendency to give greater weightage to :- a)external factors than internal factors
- b)stable factors than unstable factors
- c)internal factors then external factors
- d)unstable factors than stable factors
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

In making attributions, there is an overall tendency for people to give greater weightage to internal or dispositional factors, than to external or situational factors. This is called the fundamental attribution error.
