Zamora, Francisco Javier M. Attribution is the process in which individuals try to explain, account for or assign causal relationships for events (Lindgren & Harvey, 1981). There are two kinds of attribution: the dispositional attribution, and the situational attribution. Dispositional attribution includes all causes which are internal to a person while situational attribution includes all causes which are external to a person (Taylor et al., 1994). This study is concerned with how individuals attribute blame for the failure of their romantic love relationships. The researchers used the individual's self-concept as the dispositional variable and the individual's or the individual's partner family, peers, academic performance and relational factors as the situational variables. The researchers hypothesized that individuals who blame others have high self-concept. Furthermore, individuals who blame themselves have low self-concept. The researchers also hypothesized that there are differences on the way individuals who blame themselves attribute the failure to the situational variables as oppose to those who blame others. The study is descriptive correlational. The data were analyzed using F-test and Chi Square to determine significant differences. The F-test was used in order to determine significant differences between the self-concept of those who blamed themselves and those who blamed others. F-test is significant at alpa =.05. The Chi Square was used to determine significant differences between the attribution to the situational variables of those who blamed themselves and those who blamed others. Chi square is significant at p=.05. Subjects were 100 De La Salle University students 50 of which attributed blame to themselves and 50 attributed blame to others. To measure self concept, the Pasao self concept scale was used. To measure the situational variables, a survey questionnaire was formulated. Results of the study are as follows : There is a significant difference between the self-concept of those who blamed themselves and those who blamed others.

Attribution is the process in which individuals try to explain, account for or assign causal relationships for events (Lindgren & Harvey, 1981). There are two kinds of attribution: the dispositional attribution, and the situational attribution. Dispositional attribution includes all causes which are internal to a person while situational attribution includes all causes which are external to a person (Taylor et al., 1994). This study is concerned with how individuals attribute blame for the failure of their romantic love relationships. The researchers used the individual's self-concept as the dispositional variable and the individual's or the individual's partner family, peers, academic performance and relational factors as the situational variables. The researchers hypothesized that individuals who blame others have high self-concept. Furthermore, individuals who blame themselves have low self-concept. The researchers also hypothesized that there are differences on the way individuals who blame themselves attribute the failure to the situational variables as oppose to those who blame others. The study is descriptive correlational. The data were analyzed using F-test and Chi Square to determine significant differences.
