And Control

High and low need-for-social-approval Ss were brought together in dyads in a 2 × 2 design. One S played the role of communicator attempting to persuade a receiver to change his attitude. High need-for-social-approval receivers showed more attitude change than low need-for-social-approval and control Ss. High need-for-social-approval communicators produced more conformity to immediate situational demands. Low need-for-social-approval communicators produced more of a change in affect towards the attitude object.

Attitude Object

Ambivalence, that is holding positive and negative evaluations about a single topic, has traditionally been studied in relation to specific attitude objects. However, prior findings suggest that some individuals may be more ambivalent than others, regardless of the attitude object. To investigate this possibility, we conducted a registered secondary analysis of two existing datasets. In both datasets, individuals (ns = 41; 111) rated multiple stimuli (DS1=29; DS2=61) drawn from widely-used normed sets (IAPS; ANEW). Results indicate that ambivalence varies more strongly with individuals than with stimuli. Individual differences account for 16-28% of variance whereas the differences between stimuli only account for 3-10%. Furthermore, we document substantial individual differences in the relationships between different aspects of ambivalence. These findings show that levels of ambivalence are as much a function of the person as they are of the attitude object.

The general finding shows that the assessment instrument for attitude domain contained in each of the sub-theme in Buku Guru SD / MI,  uses the rubric of student behavior observations, even though theoretically the nature of attitude is not the same as behavior, this shows the problem in the implementation of the Curriculum 2013. Ideally, the attitude domain assessment uses attitude measurement instruments, which include components of cognition, affection, and conation. Cognition is related to beliefs (beliefs, ideas, and concepts). The affection component concerns a person's emotional life, while the conation component is a tendency to behave. The three components of attitude do not stand alone, but interact with one another in a complex way. To overcome this problem, direction needs to be prepared for the correct attitude assessment instrument, especially containing the nature of attitudes and their differences with behavior, how to measure attitudes, and how to arrange the attitude scale of the Likert model. The steps in preparing the Likert model attitude scale include are: 1) compiling the attitude object statement; (2) conducting instrument trials; (3) determiinge the score for each statement (instrument blue-print); (4) analyzing items to determine the reliability and validity of the instrument.

Moral Convictions

This review covers theory and research on the psychological characteristics and consequences of attitudes that are experienced as moral convictions, that is, attitudes that people perceive as grounded in a fundamental distinction between right and wrong. Morally convicted attitudes represent something psychologically distinct from other constructs (e.g., strong but nonmoral attitudes or religious beliefs), are perceived as universally and objectively true, and are comparatively immune to authority or peer influence. Variance in moral conviction also predicts important social and political consequences. Stronger moral conviction about a given attitude object, for example, is associated with greater intolerance of attitude dissimilarity, resistance to procedural solutions for conflict about that issue, and increased political engagement and volunteerism in that attitude domain. Finally, we review recent research that explores the processes that lead to attitude moralization; we integrate these efforts and conclude with a new domain theory of attitude moralization.

The Core

The study of attitudes formation and attitude change are two defining features at the core of social psychology. An attitude is a set of beliefs that people hold in relation to an attitude object, where an attitude object is a person, a product, or a social group. Since attitudes have been a strong influence on human behavior, social psychologists have viewed attitudes as important to understand behavior of individuals. Firstly, the chapter will introduce the concept of attitude with social psychological perspective. Attitude formation is important to understand to know why people hold different attitudes and how attitudes help to predict their behavior. In the second section, distinct ways of attitudes formation are discussed. It is also important to understand how attitudes influence in decision making, which is also discussed in the next section of the chapter. In the later section, changing processes of attitudes have been discussed.

The Way

The present paper examined how amount of experience with an attitude object affects the persuasiveness of informational and emotional arguments. It was hypothesized that persons with more experience would agree more with messages that did not match the way in which they were thinking about the attitude object, i.e., an experienced person, with an affect focus will be more persuaded by an informational message than an emotional message. Alternatively, persons with less experience would agree more with messages that matched the way in which they were thinking about the attitude object, i.e., an inexperienced person, with an affect focus will be more persuaded by an emotional message than an informational message. To test this hypothesis participants were given the opportunity to play either five times or one time with a group of puzzles under affectively focused conditions. Following this either informational or emotional messages promoting the puzzles were presented. Results supported the hypothesis.

The Impact

Previous work has reliably demonstrated that when people experience more subjective ambivalence about an attitude object, their attitudes have less impact on strength-related outcomes such as attitude-related thinking, judging, or behaving. However, previous research has not considered whether the amount of perceived knowledge a person has about the topic might moderate these effects. Across eight studies on different topics using a variety of outcome measures, the current research demonstrates that perceived knowledge can moderate the relation between ambivalence and the impact of attitudes on related thinking, judging, and behaving. Although the typical Attitude × Ambivalence effect emerged when participants had relatively high perceived knowledge, this interaction did not emerge when participants were lower in perceived knowledge. This work provides a more nuanced view of the effects of subjective ambivalence on attitude impact and highlights the importance of understanding the combined impact of attitude strength antecedents.
