Leroy Marquez · Answer 1

Dispositional attribution.

Explanation:

Dispositional attribution states that human behaviors are proportional to the internal characteristics of an individual. They are also called as internal attributions.

It takes into account only the internal factors of an individual such as traits, attitudes, decisions, etc., as the cause of a human behavior. They do not consider outside forces or social factors as a cause of a particular human behavior.

Here, the professor does not know about your tight class schedule, but he thinks that you are not a serious student because his judgement is based on dispositional attributions.
