Attitude Formation Attitude formation theories help us to understand how a person’s attitude takes shape and why a person might have a particular attitude ….resulting in the notion that attitudes direct behaviour
11
Attitudes Formation Cognitive ( how we think or reason through an attitude) Cognitive Dissonance – We change our behaviour or our attitude. (We change our beliefs and attitudes to match our behaviour ) Emotional ( how we think through an attitude) Behaviour ( how we act on an attitude) Functionalism – What benefits us
12
Cognitive Dissonance Feeling discomfort leads to an alteration in one of the attitudes, beliefs or behaviors to reduce the discomfort and restore balance. Festinger's (1957) cognitive dissonance theory suggests that we have an inner drive to hold all our attitudes and beliefs in harmony and avoid disharmony (or dissonance).

Origins of Attitudes classical conditioning ( associating behaviours and attitudes as “good” or bad” operant conditioning: ( being rewarded or punished e,g telling the truth or robbing a bank Cognitive appraisals : logically arguing in determining your attitude Observational learning ( learning attitudes through peers or media
