Answer:

The answer is the "attribution"

Step-by-step explanation:

This concept refers to a method of assuming/inferring the behavior of someone or the causes of events.

There are three types of attribution:

  1. Interpersonal Attribution: For example, when telling an anecdote the person saying is most likely to state itself in the best position of the story.
  2. Predictive Attribution: Is the tendency we have to assume things that will make us have future predictions of a situation.
  3. Explanatory Attribution: It talks about how the fact to attribute something helps us make sense of the world.
