Question

Do you think individual differences can create differences among people? Why or why not?

Answer 1

Individual differences exist not only in the depth of our attributions but also in the types of attributions we tend to make about both ourselves and others (Plaks, Levy, & Dweck, 2009). Some people are entity theorists who tend to believe that people's traits are fundamentally stable and incapable of change.

Answer 2

Answer:

Individual differences refer to enduring characteristics that distinguish one organism from another and that are stable over time and across situations. Traditionally, these characteristics have included cognitive, affective, behavioral, and/or genetic traits ascribed to persons or animals.
