Concept information

Preferred term

self-attribution process  

Definition(s)

  • Definition Self-attribution refers to the process through which people determine the antecedents and consequences of their behaviors. Because people do not have access to their internal states—attitudes, beliefs, emotions, motives, traits—they must infer these from observations of their own behaviors and the situational contexts in which they occurred. [Source: Encyclopedia of Social Psychology; Self-Attribution Process]
