Respuesta :

Answer:

"Austin feels depressed all the time..."

The psychologist believes that Austin engages in too much ____introspection______ and __attribution____.

Explanation:

Introspection: This is a situation that explains why Austin engages in inward reflection of his actions and behaviors and condemns himself as worthless.  Should he spare some thoughts, he would have realized that he was only a mortal, imperfect, and subject to the vagaries of life.  He would have realized that he is not at the centre of the world, but God is.  He is paying too much attention to what he does and how he behaves, instead of accepting his limitations as a human being, created for love and to love.  He should not spend too much time dwelling on his mistakes.  He can take a break and enjoy what life offers him.  In this way, he would develop gratitude, which is missing in his current psychological reflections.

Attribution is the process that has enabled Austin to assign  causes to his actions and behaviors.  This is why he is depressed.   Because, he is overdoing it, it has allowed fear to rule his life, instead of faith in God, the Father.  He might think that some outside forces are driving his life.  He should properly resume control and be in the driver's seat.  He should articulate what he wants to achieve in life and pursue his purpose, mindful of the fact that there is a higher power (God), who must be glorified and praised at all times.  By changing the way he attributes his actions and behaviors to give thanks instead, Austin's depression will become a thing of past, and it will get to full-blown insanity.
