Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

Abstract. Race and social class are inherently confounded; however, much of the literature focuses on only one of these categories at a time during attitude assessment. Across three studies, we examined the influence of race and social class on implicit and explicit attitudes. Results indicated that participants had more positive attitudes toward high social class White and high social class Black people than low social class White and low social class Black people. Attitudes for high social class White versus high social class Black people and low social class White versus low social class Black people were more nuanced and attitude/measure dependent. Thus, this research highlights the intricacy of attitudes when considering intersectional categories.

Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

Introduction: Vaccination is becoming an increasingly common social dilemma and the reluctance to vaccinate is one of the biggest problems of medicine. This issue is particularly important during the implementation of the National Vaccination Program at the time of the global pandemic caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2. The aim of the study is to present the factors determining the process of shaping attitudes of people through the use of knowledge of social psychology in the field of popularizing vaccination, especially in groups requiring support, as well as to present the attitude of Poles towards vaccination against COVID-19. Method: An online survey carried out in January, 2021 on a group of 454 young adults of both sexes on attitudes towards vaccination against COVID-19. Results: The results of the study show that 68.3% of respondents are going to be vaccinated, 60.6% consider the vaccination against COVID-19 to be effective and 62.1% think that it is safe. In addition, this research paper discusses the component of the Poles’ social attitudes towards vaccination. The lowest results (61.40%) were for the emotional phase of positive attitude to COVID-19 vaccination. The highest results (82.05%) were noted in the cognitive phase of positive attitude towards the COVID-19 vaccination. Conclusion: The approaches of Poles differ in their attitudes related to the readiness to be vaccinated, although most of them express the need to be vaccinated. One of the most crucial tasks here is informing people about the effectiveness and safety of the vaccine, especially among young people who are undecided (12.1% of the respondents), to achieve the so-called herd immunity. And as it appears, the distrust towards vaccination is not dictated by the subjective lack of knowledge, but the emotional climate associated with it. That is why we need to formulate appropriate and precise health-promoting campaigns.

Abstract:

This stakeholder theory-based study explored the mediating role of employee attitudes regarding corporate social responsibility (CSR) among perceptions of social innovation (SI), value cocreation (VCC), and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) in a sport social enterprise context. Eighty-three employees in a Taiwanese social enterprise were recruited using random sampling. A self-administered online survey was conducted for the collection of data, which were examined using linear regression analysis. The results indicated that employee attitudes regarding CSR fully mediated the relationship among perceived SI and OCB. Additionally, the attitude toward CSR was found to partially mediate the relationship between perceptions of SI and VCC. Employees’ attitudes toward CSR play a critical role in increasing their VCC and OCB in addition to their perception of an organization’s SI. Meaningful theoretical and practical implications were revealed.

Abstract:

To understand how law works outside of sanctions or direct coercion, we must first appreciate that law does not generally influence individual behavior in a vacuum, devoid of social context. Instead, the way in which people interact with law is usually mediated by group life. In contrast to the instrumental view that assumes law operates on autonomous individuals by providing a set of incentives, the social groups view holds that a person's attitude and behavior regarding any given demand of law are generally products of the interaction of law, social influence, and motivational goals that are shaped by that person's commitments to specific in-groups. Law can work expressively, not so much by shaping independent individual attitudes as by shaping group values and norms, which in turn influence individual attitudes. In short, the way in which people interact with law is mediated by group life.

Abstract:

The aim was to investigate whether social skills’ training (SST) influences attitudes towards communication skills learning and to validate the Communication Skills Attitudes Scale (CSAS) among students of health studies in the Republic of Croatia. SST (10 workshops) was implemented for this purpose. Seventy 1st year students in four Croatian university health studies were randomly selected to take part in the training and 169 students were part of the control group. CSAS was administered at the beginning and end of training to both groups. The results indicated good metric characteristics in relation to CSAS and its two-factor structure (positive attitude scale and negative attitude scale). Furthermore, we did not record significant changes in attitudes towards communication skills learning in both groups. However, pursuant to average results from the subscales attitudes towards communication skills learning, we noticed that negative attitudes tend to decrease and positive tend to increase. This indicates that 10 workshops might have been insufficient in order to change attitudes. Keywords: validation, communication and social skills, training

Abstract:

We study the long-run effects of conflict on social attitudes, with World War II in Central and Eastern Europe as our setting. Much of earlier work has relied on self-reported measures of victimization, which are prone to endogenous misreporting. With our own survey-based measure, we replicate established findings linking victimization to political participation, civic engagement, optimism, and trust. Those findings are reversed, however, when tested instead with an objective measure of victimization based on historical reference material. Thus, we urge caution when interpreting survey-based results from this literature as causal.

Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to analyze and describe the social construction of teachers on social attitudes in the learning process of social sciences subject at elementary schools in Makassar. The method used was descriptive quantitative. The research subjects were chosen using purposive sampling technique. The subjects consisted of 96 students and 4 teachers of 5th grade from 4 elementary schools in Makassar. The data collected through interview, questionnaire, observation and documentation. There were different interpretations from four schools regarding teachers’ social construction on the importance of character values, especially on social attitude in the thematic learning for social sciences content on theme 8. Two schools, namely SD Pertiwi and MI Negeri 1 Makassar, considered that it was necessary to integrate social attitudes into the content of social sciences subject in order to make continuous positive impact on students’ social attitude. The questionnaire results for social attitude of SD Pertiwi shows suitability of theory with the average score of 48,28%. MI Negeri 1 Makassar shows the suitability with average score of 53,41%. Meanwhile two other schools, namely SD InpresKampus IKIP and SD MuhammadiyahPerumnas, considered that it is not necessary to integrate social attitude in the learning process, instead, the teachers concerned more on the assessment of students’ knowledge and skill. The results of questionnaire shows discrepancy of theory with the average score of 35,19% for SD InpresKampus IKIP and 35,73% for SD Muhammadiyah Perumnas. Keywords: Social Construction, Social Attitude, Thematic Learning of Social sciences Content.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between factors of social network advertising, attitudes towards social networks, social network advertising, brands and perception of intrusiveness of social network advertising, and factors of social networks user behaviour (FOMO and privacy concerns). The research was conducted online on a sample of 212 respondents, who are digital natives aged 18 to 45. For the purpose of examining these variables the following was used in the research: a semantic differential scale taken from Elliott and Speck (1998) to measure the attitude towards advertising, an adjusted Facebook Intensity Scale (FBI scale) (Ellison et al., 2007), a questionnaire on attitudes towards brands (Bearden et al., 2011), an adjusted media intrusion scale (Li et al., 2002), the Gartner Inc. (2011) version of the social network privacy questionnaire, the Croatian version of the Fear of Missing Out Scale – FoMOs (Omajec and Čorkalo Biruški, 2020), and the Gartner Inc. (2011) version of the social media fatigue scale. The results indicate that positive attitudes towards advertising, higher levels of privacy concerns and FOMO are predictors of higher levels of social network fatigue, while attitudes towards social networks and perceptions of intrusiveness did not prove to be significant predictors of social network fatigue. The implementation of hierarchical regression analysis revealed the mediating effect of FOMO on the relationship between the attitude towards social network advertising, the attitude towards brands and social network fatigue, while the significance of mediation was verified by the Sobel test. The paper describes the findings, research limitations and offers suggestions for future research.

Abstract:

LaPiere's (1934) seminal research into the attitude-behavior relationship has been commonly misinterpreted as pointing out a discrepancy between attitudes and behavior. In fact, the actual discrepancy uncovered was between true attitudes – the tendency to act in a certain way – and that which is measured by an attitude questionnaire. LaPiere's primary concern was to point out the danger of assuming that questionnaire-assessed “attitudes” lead to actual behavior in specific situations. The present paper theoretically and methodologically critiques LaPiere's classic study.

Abstract:

Social entrepreneurship neither completely become choice of entrepreneurs nor researchers. Therefore, this study aims to examine the influence of attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control on social entrepreneurship tendencies of Sekolah Menengah Usahawan Al-Amin’s students. Objectives of this study to i) identify the level of attitude, social norms and perceived behavioral control and social entrepreneurship tendencies of SM Usahawan Al-Amin’s students ii) identify influence of attitude, social norms, and perceived behavioral control on social entrepreneurship tendencies of SM Usahawan Al-Amin students. Study uses quantitative approach with survey design through questionnaire. 63 entrepreneurship course students aged 13 to 17 were selected randomly. Theory of Planned Behavior is basis for solving issue gap and implementing study. Data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 26 to obtain descriptive and inferential analysis. Findings of study show level of social entrepreneurship tendencies, attitudes and social norms are moderately high. Contradictorily, perceived behavioral control is relatively low level. The variance value of attitude, social norms, and perceived behavioral control towards social entrepreneurship tendencies is 12.476 and significant. Attitude is the best influence on social entrepreneurship tendencies. Results of multiple regression analysis show attitude contribute 47.8 percent compared to perception of behavioral control 13.4 percent and social norms only 11.1 percent. Briefly, SM Usahawan Al-Amin’s students were found to have attitudes towards social entrepreneurship. Therefore, students need exposure to various skills, knowledge, and appropriate approaches through entrepreneurial education to build social entrepreneurial mindset and identity. Thus, implication of this study can further strengthen the use of Theory of Planned Behavior through variant value 38.8 percent. Hoped findings of this study can be used to design social entrepreneurship programs to foster social entrepreneurship attitudes and increase the level of attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control to increase social entrepreneurship tendencies.

Abstract:

The article presents the procedure for the construction of the Concise Scale of Eating Attitudes, which is intended for the study of attitudes towards nutrition in the social sciences. This novel tool is the result of research work on diagnosing eating attitudes, the source of which is an individual’s world view. The six-component structure of the scale was verified using confirmatory factor analysis (RMSEA = 0.059; CMIN/DF = 1.629; CFI = 0.929). Internal reliability of sub-scales was tested by calculating Cronbach’s Alpha coefficients: Factor 1 (anorectic attitude) - α = 0.779; Factor 2 (religious attitude) - α = 0.844; Factor 3 (vegetarian attitude) - α = 0.890; Factor 4 (hedonistic attitude) - α = 0.654; Factor 5 (orthorectic attitude) - α = 0.655; Factor 6 (experimental attitude) - α = 0.842. The result is a concise scale made up of six factors built using a total of 16 items. Criterion relevance was established on the basis of correlation with other tools measuring similar structures, including the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (Polish adaptation of TFEQ-13), the Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (KZZJ), the Eating Preoccupation Scale (SZJ), and the Diet Self-Efficacy Scale (Polish adaptation of DIET-SE). Satisfactory psychometric properties were obtained based on a study involving 184 adults aged 18-35 years.

Abstract:

Introduction. The research relevance is due to the need to rethink the influence of young people’s social attitudes on receiving professional engineering education that integrates design, production-technological, organizational-managerial competencies. The research purpose is to characterize social attitudes towards receiving engineering education. Materials and methods. An anonymous online survey developed using the Google Forms online service was attended by 70 high school students from schools Nos. 24, 33 in Kaliningrad. Methods to determine the formation of structural components of the attitude of today’s youth towards receiving engineering education (“Unfinished Sentences”, a modification of the methodology by D. Sachs and S. Levy; a method for measuring the emotional component of an attitude by Crites, Fabrigar and Petty; a scale technique for studying the behavioral component – Likert scale modification) were also used. Such mathematical data processing method as Mann-Whitney U test was used. Research results. A comparative analysis of the results showed differences in the attitudes of young men and women towards receiving engineering education in terms of the manifestation of a cognitive component (in young men – informative and meaningful in nature, in young women – associative and figurative). The diagnostics of a behavioral component of the attitude reflected the readiness to act in favor of engineering education as the predominant type of behavioral readiness. The empirical value of the Mann-Whitney U test criterion is greater than the critical one (499.5>471), the differences in the level of the feature in the compared groups are not statistically significant (p>0.05). The results of diagnostics of the emotional component showed negative emotions in high school students (one-fifth of the respondents) towards receiving engineering education, while no significant differences in the attitudes of young men and women were found. Conclusions. The results obtained make it possible to identify a number of problematic cognitive features in young people’s attitudes. The functionality of a regional resource center, as a scientific and educational cluster, allows forming adequate social attitudes towards receiving engineering education among young people.

Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

We investigated the implicit attitudes of Chinese youth towards the second-generation rich, and the relationship of these with their explicit attitudes. Participants were 119 undergraduate students (58 men and 61 women). Using the Semantic Differential Measure and the Feeling Thermometer Scale, we examined the participants' explicit attitudes, and we used the Implicit Association Test to assess their implicit attitudes toward the second-generation rich. Results showed that the participants did not show a negative implicit attitude towards the secondgeneration rich. However, the participants exhibited a negative explicit attitude toward the second-generation rich. These results are consistent with previous research. This suggests that the second-generation rich can take advantage of these findings and project a more positive image of themselves to other people in China.

Abstract:

Lack of social attitudes that students have will have an impact on students' unfavorable affective. This research aimed to analyze the role of teachers in developing students' social attitudes. This research was a qualitative research with a theoretical approach. The population in this study was all students of grade V at SD 2 Tenggeles, totaling 19 students. The data collection technique was carried out in 3 stages, namely observation, interview and documentation. The data analysis technique in this study used a variety of techniques (triangulation) and was carried out continuously to completion. The results of the analysis of students' social attitudes during the learning process found the findings of several aspects of social attitudes in students including honesty, discipline, responsibility, caring, polite and self-confidence. Social attitudes are observed through student activities in learning such as being honest in doing assignments independently and being responsible for assignments that have been given by the teacher which must be done in a timely manner. It can be concluded that the social attitude of students at SD 2 Tenggeles is fairly good. Thus, the role of the teacher in shaping students' social attitudes is very important to be applied in the daily life of students in the school, family, and community environment.

Abstract:

We investigated the effects of 2 dimensions of affect in evaluative conditioning (EC) on changing alcohol-related attitudes in a sample of students whom we had identified as fitting set criteria to be classified as heavy drinkers. We divided participants into 2 EC groups (high-arousal EC condition, n = 18; low-arousal EC condition, n = 18) and measured their explicit and implicit attitudes toward alcohol. Comparison of results before and after EC indicated that participants reported a greater decrease in both explicit attitudes about positive alcohol expectancies and explicit cravings. However, in regard to implicit attitudes, the results showed that the high-arousal EC condition was associated with a stronger positive attitude toward alcohol after, rather than before, EC, whereas in the low-arousal EC group, implicit attitudes toward alcohol did not change. These results imply that high levels of affect arousal during EC can positively strengthen the implicit evaluation of alcohol in a student sample of heavy drinkers, while decreasing explicit attitudes about cravings and positive expectancies. Thus, based on attitude conditioning, it is important to consider the arousal as well as the valence of affect in treatment of alcohol addiction in order to change alcohol-related attitudes in heavy drinkers.

A voting behavior model hypothesizing voting intention as an intervening variable which mediates the relationship between voter attitudes and voting behavior was examined in the framework of the general election in Israel Voter attitudes were assessed via a new attitude scaling device embodying a number of characteristics that make it a promising tool for attitude measurement. Voter attitudes and intentions were collected prior to the elections, while the actual vote was collected after the elections. The model tested primarily via discriminant analysis, has gained considerable support. Implications of the findings are discussed and avenues for future research are suggested.

Abstract:

Objective Concussion is a common injury in ice hockey, and previous research suggests some misconceptions and unsafe attitudes amongst players. The purpose of this study was to assess sport concussion knowledge, attitudes and the effect of sport concussion history in UK-based male ice hockey players across three levels of competition: professional, semi-professional and amateur. Methods Sixty-one participants across a number of UK ice hockey teams completed the Rosenbaum Concussion Knowledge and Attitudes Survey and reviewed a series of statements to assess knowledge (concussion knowledge index), attitudes (concussion attitude index) and misconceptions of concussion. Results Level of competition and concussion history had no significant effect on concussion knowledge index or concussion attitude index. A positive significant relationship exists between playing experience and concussion knowledge index and concussion attitude index. Statements identified common misconceptions and areas of accurate knowledge regarding concussion symptoms suggesting that male ice hockey players have a higher level knowledge compared to a sample of the UK general public. Playing experience was associated with increased knowledge and increasingly safe attitudes towards concussion. Conclusion Despite knowledge relating to loss of consciousness and correct management of symptoms being generally accurate, there are worryingly unsafe attitudes regarding aspects of concussion. Such attitudes may well pose significant threats to players’ safety and long-term health.

Abstract:

My purpose was to investigate the effects of gender and sex-role orientation on attitudes toward autoeroticism/masturbation, abortion, pornography, homosexuality, premarital sex, and sexual coercion among Turkish university students. Participants were 468 undergraduate students from 3 large urban universities in Ankara. The Turkish version of the Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI; Bem, 1974) and the Sexual Knowledge and Attitude Test for Adolescents (SKAT-A; Fullard, Johnston, & Lief, 1998) were used to collect data. Results revealed no sex-role orientation effect on sexual attitudes. Furthermore, no gender differences were observed in attitudes toward masturbation, homosexuality, and premarital sex. The attitude subscales on which meaningful gender differences were found were abortion, pornography, and sexual coercion. Findings are discussed with respect to the role of Turkish culture in the development of attitudes toward sexuality.

Abstract:

A meta-analysis of 797 studies and 1,001 effect sizes tested a theoretical hypothesis that situational constraints, such as perceived social pressure and perceived difficulty, weaken the relationship between attitudes and behavior. This hypothesis was confirmed for attitudes toward performing behaviors and for attitudes toward issues and social groups. Meta-analytic estimates of attitude-behavior correlations served to quantify these moderating effects. The present results indicated that the mean attitude-behavior correlation was .41 when people experienced a mean level of social pressure to perform a behavior of mean difficulty. The mean correlation was .30 when people experienced social pressure 1 standard deviation above the mean to perform a behavior that was 1 standard deviation more difficult than the mean. The results suggest a need for increased attention to the “behavior” side of the attitude-behavior equation. Attitudes predict some behaviors better than others.

Abstract:

In this study more positive attitudes towards the budgetary process are examined to see whether or not these cause less favorable attitudes towards budgetary slack, and whether less favorable attitudes towards budgetary slack causes or are caused by behaviors intended to create budgetary slack. The effects are tested using a structural equation model based on questionnaire data gained from 216 Taiwanese managers. The results indicate that more positive attitudes towards the budgetary process result in attitudes less favorable towards budgetary slack. A more favorable attitude towards budgetary slack predicts more frequent incidence of behavior to create budgetary slack and vice versa. The results suggest that the best way to diminish managerial budgetary slack behaviors is to instill in managers more positive attitudes toward the budgetary process and less favorable attitudes towards budgetary slack.

Abstract:

The aim of the study is to examine predictive effect of parental attitudes and socio-demographic variables (age, gender, time spent on smartphone, number of siblings, students’ feeling social, and parental education level) in university students’ addiction to smartphones. Participants included 670 university students whose age ranged between 18-30 years (M=21.6, SD=6.3). Smartphone Addiction Scale (SAS) and Parental Attitude Scale (PAS) and Socio-Demographic Information Form were used to collect data. The results showed that age, gender, parental education level, time spent on smartphone, number of siblings, and state of feeling social and parental attitudes predicted a significant amount of variance (11%) in smartphone addiction. The students’ perception of feeling social and parental attitudes functioned as a moderator on their smartphone addiction. It was revealed that the perception to be social softened the relation between authoritarian parental attitude and smartphone addiction. Furthermore, students experienced less smartphone addiction when their perception of feeling social and democratic parental attitudes were taken together. A negative and significant relation was found between democratic and authoritarian parental attitudes and smartphone addiction. A positive and significant relation was established between protective parental attitude and smartphone addiction.

Abstract:

This study used the 2014 China Longitudinal Aging Social Survey to explore the relationship between the activities of daily living, cognitive function, social support, and attitudes toward own aging, and a structural equation model was established to test the mediating effect. (a) Pearson correlations were performed between the total scores on each scale, and the activities of daily living were significantly negatively correlated with cognitive function and social support and significantly positively correlated with attitudes toward own aging. Cognitive function was significantly positively correlated with social support but negatively correlated with attitude toward own aging; social support was significantly negatively correlated with attitude toward own aging. (b) The goodness-of-fit indices of the validation models for each measurement model were robust. The activities of daily living among the elderly can directly predict attitudes toward own aging and can indirectly predict attitudes toward own aging through cognitive function and social support.

We examined the relationships between dysfunctional attitudes, learned helplessness, and coping styles in a sample of 623 men with substance use disorders. We also explored the potential mediating effect of learned helplessness in the relationship between dysfunctional attitudes and coping styles. Participants completed the Dysfunctional Attitude Scale, Learned Helplessness Scale, and Coping Style Questionnaire. Results revealed that male drug abusers demonstrated dysfunctional attitudes and learned helplessness. In addition, dysfunctional attitudes and learned helplessness significantly predicted the coping styles of male drug abusers. However, although learned helplessness affected coping styles, it did not mediate the relationship between dysfunctional attitudes and coping styles. Practical and theoretical implications and limitations are discussed.

Abstract:

In an initial experiment, the behavior of one person had a stronger influence on implicit evaluations of another person from the same group when (a) the attitude was negative rather than positive and (b) the people were outgroup members rather than ingroup members. Explicitly, participants resisted these attitude transfer effects. In a second experiment, negative information formed less negative explicit attitudes when the target was Black than when the target was White, and participants were more vigilant not to transfer that negative attitude to a new Black person. Implicit attitudes, however, transferred to both Black and White targets. Positive information formed stronger positive explicit attitudes when the target was Black than when the target was White, and that evaluation transferred to another Black person both implicitly and explicitly. Even when deliberately resisting outgroup negativity in attitude formation and transfer, people appear unable to avoid it implicitly.

Using meta-analysis, the impact of a number of manifestations of social influence (important others, family, class leaders, coexercisers, social cohesion, and task cohesion) on exercise behaviors (adherence and compliance), cognitions (intentions and efficacy), and affect (satisfaction and attitude) was examined. The results showed that social influence generally has a small to moderate positive effect (i.e., effect size [ES] from .20 to .50). However, four moderate to large effect sizes (i.e., ES from .50 to .80) were found: family support and attitudes about exercise, task cohesion and adherence behavior, important others and attitudes about exercise, and family support and compliance behavior.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to explore how participation in social welfare institutions in the labor union affects the welfare attitudes. Also, the effect of union commitment of union members among workers on the welfare attitude was analyzed. A self-written survey was conducted on 165 union members and 185 non-union members at social welfare institutions located in the metropolitan area. Technical statistics were analyzed, and differences in welfare attitudes between each group were investigated. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted to analyze the effect of union membership and union commitment of workers in social welfare institutions on welfare attitudes. As a result of the analysis, it was found that workers' participation in the union and union commitment had a significant effect on welfare attitudes. This study is significant in that it added empirical study to the welfare attitude study of social workers, which has been lacking in quantity. It is also meaningful to study the relationship between union membership and welfare attitudes, union commitment and welfare attitudes, which has not been attempted in Korea.

The research used the following questions to examine Brazilian youths attituded towards contemporary social values; Is there a relationship between households' satisfaction with the financial situation and the current Brazilian youths’ attitudes toward contemporary social values? Is there a relationship between socio-economic and Brazilian youths’ conceptions of achievement and success? Is there a relationship between social class and Brazilian youths’ opinion toward parents using physical punishment to discipline their children? The researcher used the following methods to examine the differences between the study variables; descriptive statistical analysis to present key variables in the sample, along with correlation, t-tests and ANOVA to further examine the relationships between variables. The results showed there was no statistically significant relationship between satisfactions with household financial situation and attitudes about doing good in society (social values), there was not a statistically significant difference in the mean scores between attaining/not attaining a university education and attitudes about achievement and success, and there was not a statistically significant difference in means scores among the three social classes in attitudes about physically punishing children. By comparing the outcomes from the study conducted by dos Santos et al. (2012) to the results from my investigation, I found there was similarity of opinions between participants in which education has relationship to having better future and helping youth become more independent; however, there were differences in opinions about the justifiability for parents to use physical punishment to discipline their children..

Abstract:

Measures of stereotypes, affect, perceived threat and relative deprivation were used to predict attitudes toward three minority groups in Australia: Aboriginals, Asians and Arabs. Participants included 139 Anglo-Saxon volunteer university students (60 male, 79 female). The findings highlighted the fact that attitudes were significantly positive towards Aboriginals compared with attitudes towards Asians and Arabs. However, Asian stereotypes were distinctively positive compared to the two other target groups. Multiple regression analyses indicated that affective measures were often better predictors of attitudes towards minority groups. Overall, the results indicated the importance of emotional stakes as crucial components of racial attitudes in Australia. The implications of these findings suggest that attitude change programs, which have traditionally been based on simply changing cognitive aspects of attitudes (e.g., knowledge structures, facts about racial groups) should also take into consideration the roles of affective features of attitudes (e.g., anxiety, distrust, frustration evoked by racial groups).
