-
None of the above
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
Kelley furthered his work on the covariation model with the configuration model (1972), citing that there need to be multiple [blank_start]sufficient[blank_end] and [blank_start]necessary[blank_end] causes when we attribute causality to behaviour in a situation.

Pregunta 14
Pregunta

Pregunta 15
Pregunta
Internal/external distinction refers to whether or not a situation was in an individual's control. However, there are some questioning whether or not it is really relevant. They argue that:
Respuesta
-
It's more about the responsibility of that person or situation, rather than the victim of it. The intention is more important
-
It's more about the self-victimisation aspect of the situation, than who is responsible for its causation
-
They did not argue any of it
Pregunta 16
Pregunta

Respuesta
-

Pregunta 23
Pregunta
Ichheiser (1943) argued that:
Respuesta
-
Attributions are fresh and private mental cognitions that are unique to individuals in their minds
-
Attributions are actually ideological - in other words, ready-made and culturally-available - assumptions that circulate around society ("ideologies") that become presuppositions
Pregunta 24
Pregunta
Has there been criticism levelled at attribution research to suggest that it has been overemphasising the roles of underlying cognition and not delving into actionable causes?

Pregunta 31
Pregunta 32
Pregunta
Dickerson (2012) argues that we need context to avoid wrongful attributions. Can we question the utility (or usefulness) of decontextualised, 'stripped-down' stimulus sentences?
Respuesta

Yes, because they lack the context inherent in real talk
-
No, because we have enough already to make presuppositions
Pregunta 33

-
Internal, controllable, and intentional accounts
Pregunta 34
Pregunta
Can external, uncontrollable, and unintentional accounts (Weiner, et al., 1987) still fail?

-
No, because all of them can be believed by anyone

-
Observe the versions of ourselves that we construct, and how this affects our mental cognitions
-
Observe how society constructs our realities, and what they can achieve
Pregunta 39
Pregunta
Can descriptions help to execute blame or diffuse presuppositions? For example, a cross-examiner in a courtroom with a rape victim who is trying to attribute blame through his descriptive language (eg, "You were talking an awful lot to him").
Respuesta
-
Yes because, although the language is descriptive, the implications are heavily accusatory
-
No, because there is little to suggest that anyone is being accusatory

Respuesta
-
Explanation slots
-
Discursive slots
-
Conversational slots
Pregunta 45
Pregunta
Do slots according to Antaki (1994) need to be observable by everyone?
Pregunta 46
Pregunta

Pregunta 47
Pregunta
According to Antaki (1994), these slots are:
Respuesta
-
Random, and can appear at any time
-
Sequentially relevant, and interactionally occasioned
Pregunta 48
Pregunta
________ ________ uses explanation slots that can be engineered by one speaker for another, or by one speaker for themselves. The talk is interactionally-occasioned and sequentially-relevant. Problematic (or "dispreferred") actions have a distinct conversational design compared to socially-preferred actions (eg, accepting an invitation). There are also normative features of account-giving, which have interactional and social advantages (eg, preventing a "spiral of accounting").
Respuesta
-
Conversation analysis
-
Discourse psychology
Pregunta 49
Pregunta
________ ________ involves commonplace phrases that can be flexibly deployed in explanatory talk to achieve various interactional outcomes (eg, exoneration, blame). Descriptions are never neutral, and there is almost always evidence from real talk that they construct events or the world in certain ways to achieve goals or outcomes (eg, implying a negative tone with descriptive language).
Respuesta
-
Discursive psychology
-
Conversation analysis
Pregunta 50
Pregunta
In this realm, there are risks that the slots Antaki (1994) talks about have a mechanistic view that is not entirely realistic. Additionally, explanations may not be fine-grained enough to describe real-world interactions, and need to be more descriptive. Are these from within the discursive paradigm or outside of it?
Pregunta 51
Pregunta
In this realm, critics argue that if we focus on only interactional concerns in real-world talk, then we could be ignoring the ideological issues that exist as well (eg, governmental hierarchies, socioeconomic differences, victim-blaming cultures). Is this in or outside the discursive paradigm realm? Furthermore, they also argue that we could be abandoning the cognitive aspect entirely, and therefore, being overly-narrow when it is unnecessary.
Respuesta
-
Inside of it
-
Outside of it
Pregunta 52
