Cindy recently played in a softball game in which she misplayed a ground ball for an error. Later in the same game, she made a great catch on a very difficult play. According to the self-serving bias, she would attribute her error to _ and her good catch to _.

The self-serving bias is the tendency that individuals have to feel that positive events that ocurred to them are linked to personal characteristics and negative events ocurred due to external causes.

For example, John scored a goal in the saturday's Soccer match. However he was expelled 10 minutes after he scored the goal.

When asked about the goal he scored he said that he's been practicing long range shots and that he is very consistent with his right foot. When asked about the expulsion he just simply said "the referee doesn't have a clue about football, he made the mistake·.

In this particular case, Cindy attributes her error to an external cause, such as the bad bounce, and her good catch to a personal characteristic such as having good fielding skills.
