All of the following factors would lead to an internal attribution of cause EXCEPT: high distinctiveness, low consensus, high consistency, fundamental attribution error.

Understand the Problem

The question is asking which factor does not lead to an internal attribution of cause, implying that it is testing knowledge of attribution theory in psychology.

More Information

Attributions can be categorized as internal or external. Internal attributions are often made when behaviors are perceived as consistent, unique across situations (high distinctiveness), and there is an agreement among others (high consensus).

Tips

A common mistake is confusing high and low consensus. Remember that high consensus means people generally agree on the cause, leading to an external attribution.
