Situational Attribution:- It refers to the inclination to attribute the cause of behavior or actions to external factors like luck or pressure, instead of inner traits. Consequently, our justifications for our own commendable acts are less inclined to include situational attributions compared to those for our unworthy actions. Dispositional attribution:- This is the tendency to connect a behavior or action's responsibility to inner forces such as attitudes or moods. Therefore, the explanations for our past actions are more likely to involve dispositional attributions than our justifications for our most recent behaviors.
