[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 977862, member: 22880"] Should've probably used "self-serving bias" as a descriptor for your arguments over the months/years.... Essentially actor-observer bias is when someone (the actor) attempts to explain their motivations/actions with one set of reasons, then applies a different set of motivations/actions for others (observing mode) performing essentially the same thing. It is a "fancy" way (in debate) of trying to state (in a manner of speaking) that you are "speaking out of both sides of your mouth". In this case, you use one set of motivations to explain your behavior/situation while using a completely different set of explanations to characterize the actions of others in essentially the same situation you are experiencing. Self-serving bias is a much better "label" to have applied to your arguments. [/QUOTE]
