Explanation / Answer

The Fundemental Attribution Error is when an individual attributes a certain situation to another's disposition instead of the situation. The attribution error can be avoided if a person knows another person well. In the above example, Carla assumes that Jimmy brushed her off because he is a mean guy. Carla attributed the situation to Jimmy's disposition or his personality. She completely ruled out the fact that it could be situational too. If Carla knew Jimmy, she would have avoided attributing Jimmy brushing her off as him being a mean guy. She would have instead thought that he is simply having a bad day.

Thus, the correct answer is, B
