The Attribution Cube and Reactions to Educational Outcomes.

Forsyth, Donelson R.; McMillan, James H.

Journal of Educational Psychology, v73 n5 p632-41 Oct 1981

Kelley's cube model of causal inferences was investigated by relating high and low students' attributions to reported affect and expectations. Low and high scoring students clustered in different cells of the cube. Predictions concerning estimates of distinctiveness, consistency, and consensus and their relation to affect and expectations were supported. (Author/BW)
