From the perspective of attribution theory, in which way are teachers' attributions to effort most likely to backfire?
A) When students are told that they didn't try hard enough at a task that they expended quite a bit of effort on, they are likely to decide that the subject area has little relevance to their own lives and needs.
B) When students fail at a task at which they have not tried very hard and are then told that they didn't exert enough effort, they are likely to feel either embarrassed or angry.
C) When students are told that they didn't exert enough effort, and they really didn't try very hard, they are likely to attribute their failure to an external factor and not accept responsibility for it.
D) When students fail at a task at which they have tried very hard and are then told that they didn't try hard enough, they may decide they simply don't have the ability to do the task and give up.
