Leila saw a man treat a passerby rudely. Shortly after that, she saw him slip and fall to the ground. She immediately thought, "What a clumsy man," without acknowledging that he had walked onto a patch of ice. Leila is demonstrating the fundamental attribution error because:
A. the thought was immediate
B. the person was actually clumsy
C. she projected her own clumsiness onto the man
D. she blamed his fall on his being clumsy
E. she thought he got what he deserved

D. she blamed his fall on his being clumsy

Explanation:

Fundamental attribution error is a term in social psychology which describes how individual, judges people's actions, by giving too much causal weight to the character of people involved, rather than to the circumstances in which those people acted.

It is often known as correspondence bias or attribution effect.

In other words, it is the defined as the tendency for individual to put much emphasis on dispositional and personality-based explanations on actions of people, while putting less empahsis on situational explanations for actions obeserved from the people's behavior or action.

Hence, in this case, Leila is blaming the man's fall on being clumsy, rather than acknowledging the fact that his fall is due to walking on a patch of ice.

"choosing is refusing" means individuals face an opportunity cost with each decision they make. economists state that every decision involves trade-offs. opportunity cost is the least desirable alternative given up as a result of a decision.

uses : -

1.aneroid barometers primarily measure whether pressure is rising or falling.

2.aneroid barometers are often used for reading pressure in homes and recreational boats.  

3.other uses may include barographs in meteorology and altimeters in modern aircraft.  

4.this type of barometer can announce whether a high or low pressure system is coming or whether it is becoming more intense.  

5.there are different types of aneroid barometers, such as the altimeter, which measures altitude, or distance above sea level.  

6.another example is a barograph, which is a modified aneroid barometer that provides constant readings of atmospheric pressure on graph paper.  

7.when used in this capacity, the aneroid barometer can store a week's worth of data.

android diameter a device for measuring atmospheric pressure , often specially calibrated for use as an altimeter ,consisting of a box or chamber partially exhaused of air, having an elastic top and a pointer to indicate the degree of compression of the top caused by the external air
