Question

A group of pedestrians is standing on a corner, waiting for the light to change. A driver runs the red light and narrowly misses another car. According to work on the two-step process of making attributions, who is most likely to point out how quickly the light changed from amber to red when explaining the near accident?

Answer 1

Here are the options that complete the question;

A) Dan, who is searching in his pocket for his house keys

B) Cynthia, who is mentally rehearsing her shopping list

C) Jeff, who is trying to think of what to cook for dinner

D) Wesley, who is feeling alert and hasn't a concern in the world

Answer:

d. Wesley, who is feeling alert and hasn't a concern in the world

Step-by-step explanation:

We can reach this conclusion because according to the two-step process of making attributions, we need to consider;

• how the person's personality could influence their action and then,
• the situation the person is in.

Hence, since the personality of Wesley is that of one who is feeling alert and hasn't a concern in the world, we would expect him in such a situation to be the one who is most likely to point out how quickly the light changed from amber to red when explaining the near accident.
