Week 3 Journal
PSY331
We all succeed or fail at a task in some way shape or form throughout our life. Sometimes we
learn and do better the next time and sometimes we do not. All humans are motivated with the
need to assign blame or give a cause to our behaviors and actions. The attribution theory
explains that people attempt to determine why others do what they do, and why they choose to
react with certain behaviors, or why they chose to behave the way that they did. (A person
seeking to figure out why another person did something may attribute one or more causes to
their behavior.) We
all have a need to make sense of an outcome by trying to understand one's thoughts. Plus, that
also begins to cause us to start identifying our own behaviors, how we view ourselves and our
ability to succeed in future learning environments is how we grow. The attributions that a
person makes every day has a significant impact on their feelings and how they think and
relate to
others. The attribution theory is when one reflects upon a situation to determine why the
outcome was the way it was. Take the feeling of depression, when we hear someone is
depressed, we tend to start thinking about the reason why. Did something cause them to be
upset? Is something happening at home that would cause this behavior? We oftentimes,
because we cannot
understand other people’s behaviors sometimes, will even deny that someone really is
depressed as we cannot see why they would be or that they have no reason to be. Other
people, when not understanding the depression, will argue that the person has a lot more
major deep-rooted mental problems that will cause that person to grow and turn to certain
lifestyles and choices that are often correlated with depression. Another example would be
