1. In your opinion can Mike be blamed for the situation? Please state disposition (if any in your opinion) and situational factors (if any in your opinion) In my opinion depending on if Mike had consumed alcohol, and driven then he should be blamed. The situations of the decline of Mike’s work even though he has been there for 15 years. There’s the accusations which have arisen of how he goes for drinks at times with other drivers, and supposedly was seen drinking at the bar.But if he had swerved because of a biker then he shouldn’t be blamed unless they found alcohol when tested.
2. Assuming Mike is responsible for everything try to explain your arriving at this conclusion by filling in 3 elements of Kelley’s model-consensus, consistency and

In the case of Kelley’s model of high consensus, low consistency, and high distinctiveness. At first I would think of has he gotten into any accidents before which he hadn’t which means he has a low consistency of accidents which would deter me from thinking that he’s trying to trick me. But at the same time Mike has been reported to drink, and seen at the bar before work the day of the accident. I would believe he might have been drinking while driving which would point me towards thinking he was drinking on the job. Then knowing he does the same behavior even when not in a group what say that it's him.
3. What attributional bias/es you think Jennifer Tye might be suffering from? Please explain
Them.
I believe that Jennifer Tye might actually be suffering from false consensus effect as she thinks that most people act like her but they don’t. So, in this case, she got these reports and was surprised of how he did this. So went for the automatic topic of termination. This idea is false as their coworkers drink just like Mike which wase seen as others were seen drinking with him. I believe that

Mike was also a paranoid person. For example, he gave the wrong address and phone number to the school so if something happened they could not contact him.

...as certainly more important in than the paparazzi in causing her death. One might even make a claim that the paparazzi were simply guilty of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Their invasion of her privacy was no worse the evening of the accident that at any other time, and could be argued as having no greater effect that evening than at any other point in her life. Despite all the opinions placing blame on the paparazzi, there is just not enough evidence to convince, or to convict.
The alternatives to this situation could have either been for Gerry to turn a blind eye and act like he didn’t know what had happened or by addressing the situation and fixing it.
These concerns are the problem of 'generality ' and the problem of 'extent '. Before these concerns can be understood, we need to understand the two forms of belief forming processes, namely, belief forming process 'type ' and belief forming process 'token '. A 'type ' is a form of belief forming process whereas a 'token ' is individual sequence of events that lead to a certain belief formation. In other words a token is an instance of type. Between them only belief forming process type is repeatable and hence can be used for reliability test.
1. Considering the numerous points that were made in the course, make a List of at least five concepts (questions to ask myself as I counseled those who are suffering...") that you found particularly helpful, insightful, unique, or had not thought about before.
This case is about Ethan Couch, a sixteen year old boy who killed four people and injured 10 people and did not serve any jail time because they said he was suffering from Affluenza. Doctor Miller says that Affluenza is the reason to this crime because he was a child of privilege and his parents never said no. Ethan was driving while intoxicated and the car lost control, swerve into a ditch, swipe a car, ran over 4 people crashing into another car and both cars flipped over leaving 10 people injured. His blood content was 3 times higher the legal limit of an adult. I believe the parents should be blame. Ethan is a rich kid who was given anything he wanted from driving at age 13 to living in a ranch house by himself. Ethan wasn’t given any limitations. He has fast forward into adulthood. The night of the incident, Tonya knew that the kids in the house were drinking because Ethan told his mom and she said do not drink too much and do not drink and drive. His mother was aware that the kids were drinking, and she probably knew he was capable of drinking while intoxicated because she said“don 't drink and drive.” As a parent, she should have went over to the ranch house and bring the kids home. The Couch’s neglect Ethan because they separated themselves from him and gave him his own place. Plus they were aware of his drinking habits, Star T says, that his mom Tonya, saw them drinking alcohol and saw Ethan drunk before. It is very obvious that Couch’s parenting skills were not the best because it lead to this tragic
“Shakespeare’s King Lear is a play of redemption in which the King moves from a state of moral blindness to one of clear vision. Evaluate this view of the play considering the King’s journey through the play.”
Throughout the Elizabethan Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet there have been key people responsible for the two young lovers' deaths. The main reasons for the death of these two fine individuals may be found on the consciences of the people surrounding them both. It may also be the feud. between their families, and the well-meaning but misguided assistance of others?
1.). How does Mr. Momaday use stories to develop his ideas? Would you draw the same conclusions from his stories that Mr. Momaday does?
For example, if an individual exhibits highly competitive behavior one may wonder if he/she always acts that way or only acts that way under competitive circumstances (Kelley, 1973). Therefore, Kelly (1967) found that individuals use three factors to explain others’ behavior: a) consistency, b) distinctiveness, and c) consensus. Consistency referred to how consistent someone’s behavior is for a given situation (Kelley 1973). Explaining behavior through distinctiveness was attributing the behavior to situational factors. Finally, explaining behavior through consensus looked at whether other individuals acted similarly in the same
...ons were taken, much heartache could be avoided for anyone involved with a drunk driver. Before anyone takes that first drink, they should already have planned ahead because the risk and consequences to themselves and others is just not worth putting the key in the ignition when someone has been drinking.
Consistency refers to the way newly formed impressions relate to what is already known about the other person (Felipe, A.I. 1970). There are two dimensions of consistency, evaluative, and descriptive. Evaluative consistency suggests we will match an overall impression of the person with traits that have already been established. If we notice a person is very witty, and we’ve already established a great relationship with someone who is also witty, we are more likely to assume the person has other positive traits. Likewise, if we come into contact with who has unfavorable traits, such as constantly lying to make themselves more interesting, we are likely to assume the person has numerous other bad traits. Descriptive theory is like evaluative theory, the difference is that we hear descriptive personality traits about someone and make our assumptions from there. We don’t even have to come into any physical contact with someone and we assume different aspects of their personality. When someone tells you someone is very pretty, one might assume she is very popular as well, that is descriptive
