Question

Brooklynn Vincent · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  The reformulated learned helplessness theory suggests that people who explain negative events as internal, stable, and global are more likely to develop learned helplessness. They believe that the cause of the negative event is due to something about themselves (internal), that it is likely to happen again (stable), and that it will affect many areas of their life (global). This type of attribution is more likely to lead to feelings of helplessness and a lack of control over one's life.

A) internal, stable, and global.
B) specific, instable, and internal.
