An attribution

Explanation:

In psychology, the term attribution refer to inferences that people make about what are the causes behind an event or a behavior. We make attributions all the time in our lives since we need to understand what's happening around us and attributions are the explanations we give about our behaviors and the ones from other people.

In this example, Michelle's son is behaving poorly in a restaurant. Michelle tells her friend that he is tired but the friend thinks that the behavior is caused by poor parenting. We can see that both Michelle and her friend are making explanations about the causes of the boy's behavior. Therefore, both explanations are examples or an attribution.
