overattribution
attribution
non-attribution

Overattribution

Explanation: In a bid to form an association between certain identified characteristic or attribute observed in an individual or person, people may tend to attach the most readily available information to the cause of such behavior or character. The association made in this scenario is called the overattribution error or correspondence bias. In the scenario above, Ling's habit of going to bed at 9:30, quiet study routine was readily associated with her being Asian. This sort of attribution was made without careful study or information, but made due to the fact that the readily avaliable information about Ling was that she is Asian. Hence, reason for concluding her race to be the causal factor. This is called Overattribution.
