    evidence of the fundamental attribution error in the United States than in Indonesia.

    Explanation:

    Attribution Theory can be defined as the interpretations or attributions made by people about the behaviors of other people. The theory of attribution was first proposed by Fritz Heider in 1958.

    The Fundamental Attribution Error can be defined as the errors that occur when people tend to over-emphasize personality and dispositional based explanations for the behaviors of people and under-emphasize situational based explanations.

    The research that Claire will be conducting on attribution theory in the US and Indonesia will result in fundamental attribution error. It is because the states that she has chosen differ from each other, one is individualistic country and the other is collectivistic.

    Thus, the correct answer is that there will be a Fundamental Attribution Error in the US than Indonesia.
