Beliefs
B
Actions
C
Feelings
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The behavioral component of attitude is the actions that one takes because of the person or experience in front of them. These behaviors can be positive or negative depending on the object of attitude.

Detailed explanation-2: -Attitude refers to an expression of the way one feels. Behavior is the way that someone acts. Although the two are related, they are distinct from one another as attitude focuses on how one feels, and behavior deals with one’s actions. However, one’s attitude is often expressed through their behavior.

Detailed explanation-3: -Components of Attitudes: Affective aspect: The emotional component is known as the affective aspect. Behavioral aspect: The tendency to act or doing is called the behavioral (or conative) aspect. Cognitive aspect: The thought component is referred to as the cognitive aspect.

Detailed explanation-4: -Attitudes and actions are not the same. We can have an attitude towards something, such as sustainability, but not necessarily act on it. Turning an attitude into an action is a behavioural change process that is predicated by a number of factors.

Detailed explanation-5: -(Social Psychology pp. 274–309) Attitudes and actions are very closely related, and are often consistent, because they influence each other in both superficial and deliberate ways.
