Full textAbstract:
Attitude strength is a key characteristic of attitudes. Strong attitudes are durable and impactful, while weak attitudes are fluctuating and inconsequential. Recently, the causal attitude network (CAN) model was proposed as a comprehensive measurement model of attitudes, which conceptualizes attitudes as networks of causally connected evaluative reactions (i.e., beliefs, feelings, and behavior toward an attitude object). Here, we test the central postulate of the CAN model that highly connected attitude networks correspond to strong attitudes. We use data from the American National Election Studies 1980–2012 on attitudes toward presidential candidates ( N = 18,795). We first show that political interest predicts connectivity of attitude networks toward presidential candidates. Second, we show that connectivity is strongly related to two defining features of strong attitudes—stability of the attitude and the attitude’s impact on behavior. We conclude that network theory provides a promising framework to advance the understanding of attitude strength.

Full textAbstract:
Despite the centrality of both attitude accessibility and attitude basis to the last 30 years of theoretical and empirical work concerning attitudes, little work has systematically investigated their relation. The research that does exist provides conflicting results and is not at all conclusive given the methodology that has been used. The current research uses recent advances in statistical modeling and attitude measurement to provide the most systematic examination of the relation between attitude accessibility and basis to date. Specifically, we use mixed-effects modeling which accounts for variation across individuals and attitude objects in conjunction with the Evaluative Lexicon (EL)—a linguistic approach that allows for the simultaneous measurement of an attitude’s valence, extremity, and emotionality. We demonstrate across four studies, over 10,000 attitudes, and nearly 50 attitude objects that attitudes based on emotion tend to be more accessible in memory, particularly if the attitude is positive.

Full textAbstract:
Past research suggests that cognitive and affective attitudes are more open to change toward cognitive and affective (i.e., matched) persuasive attacks, respectively. The present research investigates how attitude certainty influences this openness. Although an extensive literature suggests that certainty generally reduces an attitude’s openness to change, the authors explore the possibility that certainty might increase an attitude’s openness to change in the context of affective or cognitive appeals. Based on the recently proposed amplification hypothesis, the authors posit that high (vs. low) attitude certainty will boost the resistance of attitudes to mismatched attacks (e.g., affective attitudes attacked by cognitive messages) but boost the openness of attitudes to matched attacks (e.g., affective attitudes attacked by affective messages). Two experiments provide support for this hypothesis. Implications for increasing the openness of attitudes to both matched and mismatched attacks are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Are individuals’ attitudes constrained such that it is difficult to change one attitude without also changing other attitudes? Given a lack of longitudinal studies in real-world settings, it remains unclear if individuals have coherent attitude systems at all—and, if they do, what produces attitude constraint. I argue and show that groups can endogenously produce attitude constraint via cognitive authorities. Within groups, cognitive authorities explicitly link attitudes and generate feelings of connectedness among members, thereby facilitating the interpersonal processing of attitudes. Using data on interpersonal sentiment relations and attitude changes among members of intentional communities, I find cognitive authorities constrain attitudes via two mechanisms: (1) interpersonal tensions when attitudes and sentiment relations are misaligned (i.e., balance dynamics), and (2) social influence processes leading to attitude changes that are concordant with the group’s attitude system (i.e., constraint satisfaction). These findings imply that attitude change models based exclusively on interpersonal contagion or individual drives for cognitive consistency overlook important ways group structures affect how individuals feel and think.

Full textAbstract:
This study examined the impact of repetitive sport video gaming on sport brand attitudes, attitude strength (e.g., attitude accessibility and confidence), and the attitude-behavior relationship. An experiment was designed to demonstrate the attitude-behavior consistency in a hypothetical choice context. The results indicated that repeated exposure to sport video games emulating a real-life sport influences sport attitude and its strength, and subsequently hypothetical choice behavior. The sport attitudes formed on virtual sport experience (e.g., playing sport video games repetitively) are as accessible and held with the same degree of confidence as those formed on direct experience (e.g., watching a sport on TV). The findings also confirmed the moderating effect of attitude confidence on the attitude-behavior relationship.

Full textAbstract:
A positive attitude is a powerful tool that fosters enthusiasm, promotes self-esteem, and creates an atmosphere conducive to learning. Achievement in a target language relies not only on intellectual capacity, but also on the learner’s attitudes towards language learning. Attitudes could be viewed as a tendency to respond positively or negatively towards a certain thing, idea, person, situation etc. The attitudes that the students should have are attitude towards the language, attitude towards learning the language, attitude towards the language teacher, and attitude towards school in general. This study focuses on discussing about encouraging students to have positive attitudes toward learning English.

Full textAbstract:
This study investigated the effect of previously held rape myth attitudes and the accessibility of those attitudes on attitude change produced by a videotape previously used in successful rape prevention programs. Participants were 151 volunteering undergraduate males at a large southern university. Analyses revealed that participants were consistent in their responding over time. These findings argued that the data were reliable. Consistent with previous research, it was found that a commercially available videotape designed to reduce rape myth attitudes was effective. Rape myth attitudes were lower at both the immediate and the subsequent (2 weeks) assessments. The variables of Attitude Accessibility and previously held Rape Myth Attitude Levels were hypothesized to be related to both attitude change and memory for the material designed to change attitudes. However, although rape myth attitudes were lowered, the effect was unrelated to previously held Rape Myth Attitude Level or Attitude Accessibility.

Full textAbstract:
This study tested for (mis)matching effects between affective and cognitive messages promoting breaks from sitting at home (H) and work (W) and attitude basis. Working adults (n=198) were randomised into an affective or cognitive message group and completed a pre- and post-message questionnaire assessing overall, affective, and cognitive attitudes. The main outcome was change in attitudes towards breaks (H/W). Participants with weak-to-strong affective attitudes and moderate-to-strong cognitive attitudes showed greater attitude change (H) after exposure to the matching message, but not participants with weaker attitude bases. No (mis)matching effect was found for attitude change (W). This study suggests that the need to match messages to attitude basis may depend on how strong the attitude basis is and the decision-making context.

This research finds evidence for reliable individual differences in people’s perceived attitude stability that predict the actual stability of their attitudes over time. Study 1 examines the reliability and factor structure of an 11-item Personal Attitude Stability Scale (PASS). Study 2 establishes test–retest reliability for the PASS over a 5-week period. Studies 3a and 3b demonstrate the convergent and discriminant validity of the PASS in relation to relevant existing individual differences. Studies 4 and 5 show that the PASS predicts attitude stability following a delay period across several distinct topics. Across multiple attitude objects, for people with high (vs. low) scores on the PASS, Time 1 attitudes were more predictive of their Time 2 attitudes, indicative of greater attitudinal consistency over time. The final study also demonstrates that the PASS predicts attitude stability above and beyond other related scales.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractA teacher’s positive attitude is an important factor for successful inclusive physical education (PE). PE teachers’ attitudes are shaped during PE teacher education (PETE) programs. Thus, a valid instrument is needed not only for assessing pre-service PE teachers’ attitudes toward inclusive PE but also for evaluating the effect of PETE programs in general and the effect of specific parts of such programs (e.g., seminars) on the development of those attitudes. Regarding the measurement of this attitude, little is known about how a subject-specific attitude toward inclusive education is related to general attitudes toward inclusive education. In this study 362 pre-service PE teachers’ attitudes toward inclusive education in general and inclusive PE were assessed using two general attitude scales and one PE-specific attitude scale. By conducting confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs), the factorial and convergent validity of the PE-specific scale was investigated. Results showed that the scale measures attitude toward inclusive PE adequately and that this attitude is related to general attitudes toward inclusive education. In addition, the measurement invariance of the scale among different degree programs of the pre-service PE teachers as well as group differences in the assessed attitude depending on the degree programs were investigated using multigroup CFA. The results support the use of the scale in the context of PETE for inclusion, but also point to general difficulties regarding attitude measurement in the context inclusive of (physical) education.

Full textAbstract:
Though languages show rich variation in the clausal embedding strategies employed in attitude reports, most mainstream formal semantic theories of attitudes assume that the clausal complement of an attitude verb contributes at least a proposition to the semantics. The goal of this paper is to contribute to the growing cross-linguistic perspective of attitudes by providing semantic analyses for the two embedding strategies found with attitude verbs in Oromo (Cushitic): verbal nominalization, and embedding under akka 'as'. We argue that Oromo exemplifies a system in which non-speech attitudes uniformly embed situations rather than propositions, thereby expanding the empirical landscape of attitude reports in two ways: (i) situations and propositions are both ontological primitives used by languages in the construction of attitude reports, and (ii) attitude verbs in languages like Oromo do the semantic heavy lifting, contributing the "proposition" to propositional attitudes.

The importance of instilling social attitudes among elementary school students has attracted the attention of researchers. Due to things that deviate from the social attitudes of the participants, such as there are students who come late to school, there are students who throw garbage carelessly, students do not do class pickets, students do not do homework, students cheat when doing school assignments, there are students students who are embarrassed to ask and there are students who are embarrassed to answer questions. This research aims to find out the teacher's efforts in instilling social attitudes in class VI students through learning the second theme, especially Social Studies and Civics lessons. This research was conducted at SD Negeri Cengkareng Timur 01 Pagi. The type of research used is qualitative using descriptive methods. The research subjects consisted of students, class VI teachers, and school principals. Researchers collect data by interviews, observation, and documentation. Interviews were conducted with class VI teachers and school principals. Observations were made to all students, informants by observing learning activities carried out at school. The results showed that not all of the students had good social attitudes. The teacher's efforts in instilling social attitudes in class VI students can be adjusted to the needs of students' social attitudes. There are eight social attitudes of students, namely (1) honest attitude, (2) discipline attitude, (3) responsibility attitude, (4) caring attitude towards the environment, (5) tolerance attitude, (6) mutual cooperation attitude, ( 7) polite attitude, and (8) confident attitude.

Full textAbstract:
Variation in the extent an attitude is imbued with moral conviction is a strong predictor of a variety of consequential social judgments; however, the extant literature has not explained variation in moral conviction. The authors predict that some attitudes may be experienced as moral because they are heritable, promoting group survival and firmly rooting people in these attitudes. To test this hypothesis, the authors surveyed two community samples and a student sample (total N = 456) regarding the extent participants perceived 20 attitudes as moral attitudes, and compared these ratings to established estimates of attitude heritability. Across all three studies, attitudes with greater previously established heritability estimates were more likely to be experienced as moral, even when controlling for a variety of measures of attitude strength and the extent to which an attitude is associated with one’s religious beliefs.

The study examined whether math self-efficacy significantly affects attitudes towards mathematics. It also explored the moderating effect of technology attitude on the link between mathematics self-efficacy and attitudes towards mathematics. A total of 174 Science, Technology and Engineering (STE) students (79 males and 95 females) of Tagum City National High School participated in the study. Three (3) valid and reliable instruments were used to assess students’ level of math self-efficacy, technology attitude, and attitudes towards mathematics. Results show that the level of math self-efficacy, and attitudes towards math of the STE students is moderate. Moreover, the level of technology attitude of the students is high. There is a significant relationship between math self-efficacy and attitudes towards math. However, there is no significant relationship between technology attitude and attitudes towards mathematics. The negative moderating effect of technology attitude on the relationship between math self-efficacy and attitudes towards math is established.

In studying the professional attitude of teachers in the perspective of Islamic education, 4 basic questions have been developed, namely: (1) what is the meaning of the professional attitude of teachers; (2) what is the target of the teacher's professional attitude; (3) how to develop the teacher's professional attitude; and (4) how is the teacher's professional attitude in the perspective of Islamic education?
To answer this problem, the authors examine it through literature searches, both based on theory, trade regulations, and through studies of the Koran and the Hadith of the Prophet.
The results of a literature search found that: (1) the teacher's professional attitude is an action or activity in the form of a good example in carrying out duties as a teacher who has high knowledge, attitudes, and skills in carrying out basic teacher duties; (2) the teacher's professional attitude includes: (a) attitude towards students; (b) attitudes towards leaders/leaders; (c) attitudes towards colleagues; (d) attitudes towards professional organizations; (e) attitude towards work; (f) attitudes towards the workplace; and (g) attitudes towards legislation; (3) the development of this professional attitude can be carried out through two stages, namely: pre-service education (pre-service education) and in-service education/in-service training (in-service education/training); and (4) the attitude of professionalism in Islamic education, namely the actions of a teacher who not only teaches but also educates with only scientific and academic qualifications, but more importantly has commendable morals, such as having patience in teaching, conveying what is called for with full honesty , and carry out educational activities with sincerity.
It is hoped that this article can provide benefits and insights for readers regarding the professional attitude of teachers in an Islamic perspective and make it a basis for thinking and acting in carrying out the duties of the teaching profession, so that it is not only as giving up duties and obligations, but at the same time as worship on the side of Allah SWT

Social media has developed and created new advertising systems for business and commerce purposes. Previous research found that many factors influence a person's interest in advertisements displayed on social media. This study aims to examine the effect of advertising value on attitudes towards social media advertising (SMA) and attitudes towards SMA on attitudes towards brands and purchase intentions. The study was conducted on 267 respondents who often interact through social media. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the help of smartPLS software. The results showed that the trustworthiness and personalization of advertisements delivered through social media were able to influence consumer attitudes towards these advertisements. Attitudes towards social media advertising can influence consumer attitudes towards advertised brands. Furthermore, brand attitude has a greater influence on purchase intention than attitude towards SMA. Meanwhile, perceived incentives and perceived encroached risk have no significant effect on attitude to social media advertisement.

blue spaces. Attitude towards green-blue space were also studied. However, little attention is given to perceived benefits and attitude components in ecosystem service research. This paper aims to examine community attitudes towards urban green-blue spaces and its association with perceived benefits based on cultural ecosystem services concept. A questionnaire was conducted among 31 respondents of local community at Taiping Lake Garden, Perak. The data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) which involving multiple regression to capture the effects of attitude components on perceived benefits. The findings suggest that overall attitudes of respondents had an excellent level of perceived attitudes toward urban green-blue space. However, among three sub-construct of attitudes, only cognitive attitude was found to be the dominant variable compared to conative and affective attitude that predicts perceived cultural ecosystem benefits. This indicates that if the community could enhance their positive attitudes toward their urban green-blue space, they may perceive higher cultural ecosystem benefits. Future research should continue to explore ways of enhancing positive attitudes among urban community as attitude may guide them to enhance their engagement in urban green-blue spaces.

Full textAbstract:
It was suggested that the dual process models of attitude change should be extended to include the biased processing of strong attitudes. The main hypothesis of the extended model is that too much involvement intrinsic in strong attitudes may hinder objective processing, resulting in resistance to change even under strong message. Both attitude change and cognitive response measures in a 3 (attitude strength) x 2 (message quality) factorial design experiment supported the extended model. Only the holders of moderate attitudes showed greater attitude change when given a strong, rather than a weak, message. When given a strong message, holders of strong attitudes showed a boomerang effect by generating relatively greater counter-arguments (implying a central but biased processing with high motivation) in contrast with holders of weak attitudes who generated indifferent appeals and greater change in attitude regardless of the quality of the argument (implying a peripheral processing with low motivation).

Merawat pasien menjelang ajal merupakan pengalaman yang kurang menyenangkan bagi perawat karena bisa menimbulkan rasa takut, cemas, sedih dan frustasi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui hubungan antara sikap perawat pasien menjelang ajal dan sikap terhadap kematian. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriptif korelasi dengan menggunakan tehnik convinence sampling kepada 95 perawat yang bekerja di Rumah Sakit Advent Bandung. Pengumpulan data dilakukan pada bulan Oktober - November 2019. Untuk mengukur sikap perawat terhadap pasien menjelang ajal digunakan kuesioner Frommelt’s Attitude Toward Care of the Dying (FATCOD) scale. Sedangkan untuk mengukur sikap perawat terhadap kematian digunakan kuesioner Death Attittudes Profile-Revised (DAP-R). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar perawat memiliki sikap yang negatif terhadap pasien menjelang ajal (dying attitude) yaitu 83% dan 81.1% menunjukkan sikap yang negatif terhadap kematian (death attitude). Hasil uji-t dan uji-F menunjukkan bahwa unit kerja dan pelatihan paliatif mempunyai hubungan yang positif terhadap perawatan menjelang ajal dengan nilai sig< 0.05. Oleh karena itu penulis menyarankan agar perawat diberikan pelatihan tentang perawatan paliatif agar dapat meningkatkan sikap yang positif dalam merawat pasien menjelang ajal dan sikap terhadap kematian. Kata kunci: kematian; menjelang ajal; sikap perawatNURSE’S BEHAVIOR TOWARD DEATH AND DYING PATIENT ABSTRACT Caring for a dying patient is an unpleasant experience because nurses can feel frightened, anxiety, sadness, and frustration. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between nurse’s behavior towards death and dying patient. Data collection was conducted from October - November 2019 to 95 nurses at Adven Hospital of Bandung using a convenience sampling technique and descriptive correlation method using Frommelt's Attitude toward Care of the Dying (FATCOD) scale and Death Attitudes Profile-Revised (DAP-R) questionnaire. The results of this study indicate that the majority (87.4 %) of nurses have a negative dying attitude, and 81.1 % of nurses have a negative death attitude. F-test and t-test show that the work unit and palliative training have a significant correlation (sig <0.05) to nurses’ dying attitude. Therefore the authors suggest that nurses need to take palliative training to enhance nurses' positive dying attitudes and death attitudes. Keyword: death; dying; nurse attitude

The article highlights the role of training in bringing about attitude change. It focusses upon the impact of imparting behavioural skills through a training programme to bring about attitude change leading to better performance with specific reference to three work related attitudes: Positive Attitude towards work, Personalised Attitude and Cooperative Attitude. The study was conducted on 35 (Thirty Five) officers belonging to different Central/State Government/PSU/Nationalised Banks etc. The results showed that training does bring about a change in attitudes. Credibility of the communicator; Experience based training through Management Games/Exercises and Group Discussion emerged as factors fascilitating the attitude change. The implications of the study are also discussed.

Full textAbstract:
This paper discusses the semantics of so-called de re propositional attitudes. According to the standard Kaplanian analysis, the semantics of such dicta contains existential quantification over functions that map the attitude holder and the object of their de re attitude to an individual concept by which the attitude holder identifies the object. This existential quantification has a wider scope than the universal quantification over possible worlds that is generally associated with the semantics of attitude dicta. We explore examples of disjunctive de re attitudes and show that these dicta have truth conditions that cannot be grasped by the standard analysis. To account for them, we propose a revision of the theory of concept generators and show how the revised theory makes correct predictions.

The basic assumption of the consistencies theories is that there must be consistency between attitude and behaviours. On another side, the functional theories explain that changing attitudes requires understanding the motivations or their function to individuals. The functional attitude theories also provide an explanation of why attitudes change. The social judgment theory of attitude change is based on the study of research literature and by practice. It shows the importance of people's previous attitudes. Most of the other approaches are just mild with the previous attitudes.

This paper is concerned with the relationship between attitude and behaviour in language. Adolescent male and female subjects were recorded and index-scores of their linguistic behaviour compared to their assessment of in- group members in a verbal-guise attitude experiment, and to their attitudes concerning language usage in a questionnaire. It was hypothesized that male subjects' language would be closer to the vernacular, and that they would also express more positive attitudes towards in-group members than would female subjects. However, no significant correlation between attitude and behaviour was found in the quantitative analysis, but results from the attitude-questionnaire support our hypothesis: male subjects have more vernacular features in their language and also express more genuinely positive attitudes towards the local vernaculars than do female subjects. Finally, methodological and theoretical implications of these results are discussed, emphasizing the importance of using eclectic approaches in future research on attitude-behaviour relations in language.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to propose and test a conceptual framework of attitudinal constructs that influence attitude toward the brand in movie product placements. Advertising literature is replete with studies on factors that influence attitude toward the brand (Ab). However, this topic remains under-explored for product placements. Design/methodology/approach – Our framework showcases several theories to relate attitude and fit constructs to attitudes toward the product placement and attitude toward the brand. We use the structural equation model approach to estimate the conceptual framework. Findings – Several attitudinal movie constructs (attitude toward the actor, the character and the movie) influence attitude toward the product placement, which in turn mediates the relationship between the former attitudinal constructs and attitude toward the brand. Interestingly, only the fit between the actor and placed brand impacted attitude toward the product placement, with no effects found for the fit between the character and the fit between the movie and brand and the attitude toward the product placement. Research limitations/implications – We focus on explicit attitudes; implicit attitudes need future research attention. Practical implications – Findings affirm a key role for the actor featured in the placement in directly or indirectly shaping the attitude toward the brand. Originality/value – This is the first study to apply the structural equation modeling approach to this research area.

This article focuses on the analysis of the scientific literature on investigating language attitude, theoretical approaches to the language attitude analyzed, the core paradigms of investigation connected to studying and distinguishing of language attitude presented, as well as the importance of data gathered regarding language attitudes and the specific nature of the language attitude studies in Ukraine that are analyzed. Studying language attitudes is popular, as the language which is investigated has numerous sociocultural functions, and knowledge of language attitudes helps to achieve success in language policy planning. Moreover, influences on linguistic personality and language attitudes allow evaluation not only of the loyalty to a particular language, but also the functional value of each of these. Language attitude is an instrument which allows successful language policy to be constructed, and also informs about the language identification of speaker, as well as about language status and prestige.

Full textAbstract:
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.

Specifically, it explains the variables that to form purchase intention consumer to foreign product "converse" and moderating effect of Customer’s Ethnocentrism variable. Data are gathered through survey by interviewing respondents who are guided by questionnaires. Sample consist of 200 respondents that collected by purposive sampling method. Structural Equation Modeling was used to explain the relationship of variables that are hypothesized. Meanwhile, to analyze moderation effect of the Customer's Ethnocentrism to use sub-group analysis. The test result indicated that there is significant relationship between perceived quality on attitude, perceived value on attitude, brand image on attitude, country of origin on attitude, and attitude on purchase intention. But there was not significant relationship between perceived prestige on attitude. Moreover, Customer's Ethnocentrism moderate the relationship between perceived prestige on attitude, perceived quality on attitudes, brand image on attitude, country of origin on attitudes, and attitudes on purchase intentions. But Customer's Ethnocentrism variabel was not moderate relationship between perceived value on attitude.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine four characteristics of social media content and their effects on restaurant patrons. The characteristics we examine in our study are authenticity, consensus, usefulness, and aesthetics. More specifically, the study investigates how content characteristics influence consumers’ cognition-based and affect-based attitudes toward the message, which, in turn, influence brand attitude and behavioral intentions. Data were collected from 376 respondents who had frequented restaurants on a regular basis and used social media networks for at least one year. Structural equation modeling with AMOS 22.0 was used to analyze the data. The most important content characteristic that influences both cognition-based attitude and affect-based attitude is usefulness. All three other content characteristics (authenticity, consensus, and aesthetics) are also found to have a significant impact on either cognition-based or affect-based attitudes. While both cognition-based and affect-based attitudes have a significant effect on brand attitude, the effect of affect-based attitude is fully mediated by brand attitude in influencing behavioral intentions. The mediating role of brand attitude is also examined.

Full textAbstract:
Higher education for sustainable development (HESD) in the Covid-19 pandemic faces different challenges. Empirically few studies to date have introduced much on the digitalization of higher education for sustainable development. This study aims to explore and explain the digitalization of HESD from different attitudes and to build linkages of the digitalization in HESD. Furthermore, the study makes content analysis where 1,200 tweets on digitalization in higher education for sustainable development are collected from Twitter, and 19 documents have further categorized information data via NVivo. In addition, 22 students and 9 instructors were invited for a semi-structured interview to further supplement this study and confirm its findings. This study finds that attitudes towards digitalization in the study area can be divided into three correlated attitude layers. Teaching attitudes and educational attitudes are the first level, and the second level is the digital platform attitude, technology use attitude, and resource attitude. Furthermore, network attitude, service attitude, and development attitude are the third level. Thus, through the analysis, this study suggests higher education institutions should make improvements in digitalized teaching, education quality via innovation, technological development, resources use, and development via creating a better digital platform or environment is essential for genuinely promoting the HESD.

Full textAbstract:
Adolescents’ attitudes predict sexual behavior; therefore, attitudes are targeted in sexually transmitted infection (STI) and pregnancy prevention programs. However, attitudes and behaviors do not always align. Young adolescents who have had penile vaginal intercourse (PVI) and have attitudes supportive of PVI have two risk factors for future health risks while those with attitudes in conflict with PVI experience (i.e., attitudes not supportive of PVI) only have one risk factor, that is, early sexual debut. Rural sixth- to eighth-grade students in southern, central Florida who had PVI experience ( N = 162) completed surveys about their sexual history, substance use, PVI refusal skills, and PVI attitudes. Logistic regressions found that longer time since PVI, never trying other drugs, and better PVI refusal skills predicted higher odds of attitude-behavior conflict; thus, youth with attitude-behavior conflicts have fewer predictors of sexual health risk than those without attitude-behaviors conflicts. Those without attitude-behaviors conflicts likely need more focused and intensive interventions.

Full textAbstract:
The attitude–behavior relationship is of great import to many areas of psychology. Indeed, psychologists across disciplines have published thousands of articles on the topic. The majority of this research implies that the attitude–behavior relationship is linear. However, observations from 4,101 participants on Amazon’s Mechanical Turk and 321,876 online reviews demonstrate that this relationship is systematically nonlinear. Across diverse topics, measures, and contexts, as attitudes move from extremely negative to extremely positive, the corresponding shift in behavior tends to be relatively flat at first (as attitudes move from extremely to moderately negative), to steepen when attitudes cross neutral and shift from negative to positive, and to taper off again as attitudes move from moderately to extremely positive. This result can be explained on the basis of research on categorical perception. The present research suggests a fundamental pivot in how researchers construe, study, and assess the attitude–behavior relationship.

Full textAbstract:
The attitude of street-level bureaucrats towards their clients has an impact on the decisions they take. Still, such attitudes have not received much scholarly attention, nor are they generally studied in much detail. This article uses Breckler's psychological multicomponent model of attitude to develop a scale to measure street-level bureaucrats' general attitude towards their clients. By means of a test study ( N=218) and a replication study ( N = 879), the article shows that street-level bureaucrats' attitude towards clients consists of four different components: a cognitive attitude component, a positive affective attitude component, a negative affective attitude component and a behavioural attitude component. It also establishes a conceptual and empirical distinction from related attitudes, such as prosocial motivation, work engagement, bureaucrats’ rule-following identities and self-efficacy, and suggests avenues for application and further validation among different groups of street-level bureaucrats. This instrument opens up opportunities for theory testing and causality testing that surpasses case-specific considerations.

Abstract This study investigates if collective personality influences positive attitude towards family caregiving and support for elderly parents, which, in turn, engenders positive attitude toward intergenerational coresidence. To test the hypothesis, the author examines the interconnections among collective personality; attitude towards family caregiving, and attitude towards support for aged parents; and attitude towards intergenerational coresidence in the U.S. The survey data is collected from total 67 undergraduate students in classroom environment. Particular attention is given to their attitude towards family caregiving and aged parents support. Results show that those three predictors are positively correlated with the attitude towards intergenerational coresidence i.e. respondents with more positive attitude towards family caregiving and aged parents support and with collective personality are more likely to have positive attitude towards intergenerational coresidence. Among the three predictors, collective personality is positively connected to the attitudes towards family caregiving and support for aged parents. A positive correlation is also observed between two attitude predictors i.e. respondents with more positive attitudes towards the family caregiving are likely to have positive attitude towards the support for aged parents and vice versa. The results highlights the important influence of collective personality, and attitude towards family caregiving and support for older parents on the intergenerational coresidence, even in the individualistic society.
