-
Covariation, distinctiveness, and consensus
-
None of the above
Questão 8
Questão
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.

Questão 14
Questão

Questão 15
Questão
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:
Responda
-
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

Questão 23
Questão
Ichheiser (1943) argued that:
Responda

-
Attributions are actually ideological - in other words, ready-made and culturally-available - assumptions that circulate around society ("ideologies") that become presuppositions
Questão 24
Questão
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?
Questão 25

No, because we have enough already to make presuppositions
Questão 33

-
Internal, controllable, and intentional accounts
Questão 34

-
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
Questão 39
Questão
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").
Responda
-
Yes because, although the language is descriptive, the implications are heavily accusatory
-
No, because there is little to suggest that anyone is being accusatory

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

Responda
-
Random, and can appear at any time
-
Sequentially relevant, and interactionally occasioned
Questão 48
Questão
________ ________ 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").
Responda
-
Conversation analysis
-
Discourse psychology
Questão 49
Questão
________ ________ 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).
Responda
-
Discursive psychology
-
Conversation analysis
Questão 50
Questão
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?
Questão 51
Questão
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.
Responda
-
Inside of it
-
Outside of it
Questão 52
Questão
Exonerating explanations are:
Responda
-
Explanations of accounts for why we, or others, might not approve of
