UNIT 2: SELF AND OTHERS
AREA OF STUDY 1:
INTERPERSONAL & GROUP BEHAVIOUR
Ideas that we hold about ourselves, others objects and
experiences
Attitudes are learned through experience
They reflect our unique experience as individuals, as well as our
socio-cultural background
They are relatively long-lasting
ATTITUDES
EXAMPLE:
Cognitive = the belief that
global warming is real and
happening in the world
Behavioural = riding your
bike to work instead of
driving your car
Affective = feeling negative
about the state of the world
and other people’s
indifference
TRI-COMPONENT MODEL
OF ATTITUDES
ALL 3 MUST BE PRESENT
IN ORDER TO SAY THAT
AN ATTITUDE EXISTS
All 3 of these are usually
consistent with each other

HOMEWORK
Research shows that understanding a person’s attitude is not
often a reliable predictor of someone’s behaviour
(Richard La Piere, 1934 – Chinese People in Hotels, pg.329)
Some psychologists suggest that attitudes only have an
affective and cognitive component
LIMITATIONS OF THE TRICOMPONENT MODEL OF
ATTITUDES

ACCESSIBILITY OF THE ATTITUDE
SOCIAL CONTEXT OF THE ATTITUDE

endless re-runs
