Question

Pat believes that the reason for her success in reading is because she puts so much effort into it. The type of attribution being demonstrated is a) Uncontrollable b) controllable

Answer 1

Answer: Controllable attribution.

Explanation: Pat attributes her success in reading to the amount of effort she puts into it. Controllable attribution is the attribution of one's success (or failure) to things that they do or can control. An explanation in which Pat could have used uncontrollable attribution to explain her success in reading could be one where she decided that her success came from a talent that she has had since birth.
