This sourceDemonstrates Americans attribute social behavior more dispositionally than Chinese (no difference for physical events), supporting individualist-vs-collectivist attribution-style differences; supports D17-066's cultural-variability tension.
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
Abstract-level support that attributional dispositionalism varies across cultures, backing the cultural-variability topic but not reporting the specific FAE-strength finding.
“The authors argue that attribution patterns reflect implicit theories acquired from induction and socialization and hence differentially distributed across human cultures. In particular, the authors tested the hypothesis that dispositionalism in attribution for behavior reflects a theory of social behavior more widespread in individualist than collectivist cultures”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
