An attitude is an evaluation of a person, object, or idea, with affective, behavioral, and cognitive components.

An attitude toward a policy includes how it feels, what one does about it, and what one believes about it.
Where people slip
Attitudes predict behavior weakly unless they are specific, strongly held, and about accessible behavior.
