Don’ts Dos
Don’t choose
Don’t look for what is right
Don’t follow a sequence
Don’t concentrate on relevance
Don’t accept the obvious
Change
Look for what is different
Make deliberate jumps
Welcome chance intrusions
Explore less likely directions

Fundamental Attribution Error
The fundamental attribution error is our tendency to explain someone’s behavior based on internal factors, such as personality or disposition, and to underestimate the influence that external factors, such as situational influences, have on another person’s behavior.

The motivational effect of learned helplessness is often seen in the classroom.
Students who repeatedly fail may think they are incapable of improving their performance
How might this attribution perception impact these students?

Learned helplessness may be a factor in the development of a victim mentality in
a child or young adult.

Attribution and learned helplessness leads to a
"failure is fatal" mentality instead of being able to
learn from mistakes.
This leads to the following:• An overreaction to failure
• Depression• Over reliance on experience
