Answer: D - You make a Fundamental Attribution Error when you assume that everything Michael does is because he has a bad attitude. A fundamental attribution error is an error in judging the actions and behaviors of others. If Michael displays a bad attitude in some situations, it does not mean that all his behavior is affected by this attitude. To others, however, it is easy to make that sweeping attribution error. In some cases, outside circumstances could affect his behavior. This type of error is very commonly made about others, but not oneself.
