explanation for someone's behavior.
•We credit that behavior either to the situation or….
•To the person’s disposition.
Was my friend a jerk because she had a bad day or is just a bad person?

• The tendency to underestimate the impact of a situation and overestimate the impact of personal disposition.

Only if….

• We are aware of our attitudes.
• The attitude is relevant to the behavior.
