abstract

  • The literature on the role of causal and characteristic attributions in the employment interview is reviewed and a set of propositions developed. Those propositions are used, in association with PEAT (Probability, Expectancy Attribution Theory), to provide a comprehensive model of interview attributions that makes specific predictions for empirical test and opens new avenues for theoretical development.
