Recall that even when participants in an experiment conducted by Jones and Harris (1967) were told that people were assigned to write an essay sympathetic to Cuban dictator Fidel Castro, they still were willing to assume that the essay reflected the writer's true "pro-Castro" attitudes. In this experiment, how could people have avoided the fundamental attribution error?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The fundamental attributed error is correspondence bias and this involve attributing a behavioral pattern internally to an action made by the correspondence.

To avoid bias internal attribution should be avoided by the researcher but rather encourage to get answers directly from the correspondence as internal attribution is not a true measure of the correspondence intention and it should be avoided because of bias results.
