Atttitude-a learned like or dislike of someone or something that influences our behaviour towards that thing or person.
Attitudes develop from our experiences and the information we receive, someone's attitude may be modelled on the attitudes of their parents or other influential factors.
Atttitudes are hypothetical constructs that cannot be directly observed but are important in the study of social psychologu.
