Attribution process, errors and conflict management styles

Individual differences affect how individuals perceive others, their behaviour and situations. In this process of perception, attributions help us to explain how individuals assign and understand the causes of their own or others behaviour. Therefore, it is necessary to note the importance of attribution as well as the presence of attribution errors that an individual mostly makes unconsciously and that are often present in the situation of conflict. This paper provides insight into the importance of attribution, attribution biases and their role in conflict and connection with specific conflict management styles. Results of empirical research on a sample of 182 students from the University of Zagreb provide additional data on the connection between the attribution process, attribution errors and conflict management styles.
