“…Thus, the extent to which immanent justice attributions occur spontaneously remains unexamined. Nevertheless, research shows that much the same patterns in causal explanation can emerge whether people rate the explanatory quality of attributions or freely generate them (e.g., McClure, Hilton & Sutton, 2007), and similar results occur in the literature on how behaviors are described in situational versus dispositional terms (Douglas & Sutton, 2003). One interesting avenue for future research, then, would be to examine whether people spontaneously make immanent justice attributions.…”
