Further Appraisal of Correspondent Inference Theory

University of Washington

Jones and McGillis (1976) present a revision of correspondent inference theory (Jones & Davis, 1965) and articulate the relationship between this revised theory of correspondent inference and the covariational model of causal attribution (Kelley, 1967). The multiple definitions of correspondence used in this revision lead to problems in the proposed interface between the two theories. The present article reconsiders the concept of correspondence and extends the revisions proposed in the original theory of correspondent inference. The implications of these changes for the relationship between the theory of correspondent inference and the covariational model of causal attribution are discussed.
