Everytime I go over the actor-observer bias, I wonder if this is still a
current concept. I would seem that the self-serving bias would be a more
comprehensive concept. Myers defines slf-serving bias a tendency to
perceive oneself favorably. Would this not mean to make a situational
attribution in incidences of failure,etc and dispositional attributions in
incidens for success, etc?
So a qustion from this hope-to-retie-soon high school psychology teacher,
is actor-observer effect still a "current concept" or has it been replaced
by self-serving bias?
