Document Summary

Psychology 2070b lecture 5: attitudes & attitude changes. Everything is fair game online + lecture materials + textbook readings. Understand the concepts rather than memorizing i. e. how the study was done and what happened during the study. Think that this person deserved what they had coming. Less likely to adjust your belief in that instance, because there is asymmetry in the brain (cid:449)he(cid:396)e it"s a(cid:272)tuall(cid:455) ha(cid:396)de(cid:396) fo(cid:396) (cid:455)ou to go f(cid:396)o(cid:373) people pe(cid:396)(cid:272)ei(cid:448)i(cid:374)g (cid:455)ou as bad to good. Can happen but takes a lot more contradictory evidence (i. e. lannister in game of thrones: (cid:862)c(cid:396)oss(cid:449)o(cid:396)d(cid:863) dist(cid:396)a(cid:272)tio(cid:374); (cid:449)he(cid:374) (cid:455)ou a(cid:396)e dist(cid:396)a(cid:272)ted, (cid:455)ou do(cid:374)"t thi(cid:374)k (cid:395)uite as (cid:272)lea(cid:396)l(cid:455), (cid:272)og(cid:374)iti(cid:448)e a(cid:271)ilit(cid:455) soaked up by something else. So make more snap decisions rather than thinking carefully through. Attitude: an evaluation of a person, object, or idea: can be positive, negative, or both (ambivalence, can also be neutral.
