Detailed explanation-1: -Behaviors are more likely to be consistent with attitudes when the social situation in which the behavior occurs is similar to the situation in which the attitude is expressed (Ajzen, 1991; LaPiere, 1936).
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: Behavior does not always follow from attitudes. This is because behavior has numerous causes. Behavior follows from attitudes when a person has choice in how to act.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Relation of Attitude to Thought and Behaviour: People’s attitudes are often a good predictor of their behaviour. If someone has a positive attitude towards something, they’re more likely to act in a positive way towards it. Likewise, if someone has a negative attitude, they’re more likely to act in a negative way.
Detailed explanation-4: -Attitude stability: Attitudes that are stable across time (rather than those that are more susceptible to context effects) are more likely to predict behavior.
Detailed explanation-5: -Behaviour is affected by factors relating to the person, including: physical factors-age, health, illness, pain, influence of a substance or medication. personal and emotional factors-personality, beliefs, expectations, emotions, mental health. life experiences-family, culture, friends, life events.
