Abstract
Attitudes refer to our overall evaluations of people, groups, and other objects in our social world. Reporting an attitude involves making a decision concerning liking versus disliking or favoring versus disfavoring an attitude object. Attitudes are important because they impact both the way we perceive the world and how we behave.
