Abstract
Research has shown that unpredictable behavior is con- sidered more meaningful than predictable behavior. But it is unclear whether such findings were due to the unpredictability of the person's specific behaviors or to the uncertainty of the goal. In this experi- ment the predictability of a person's behavior was varied on two levels--predictability of the goal (molar level) and predictability of the specific actions (molecular level). Behavior was segmented into the most units of action and was viewed as most dispositionally caused when unpredictable on both molecular and molar levels.
