Attitudes are:

Attitudes are:

• A. Opinions you develop from values
• B. Feelings about a situation
• C. Actions taken in emergencies
• D. Nonverbal cues

Answer: (A)

Attitudes are evaluative beliefs formed from what you value. They’re your opinions about something—positive or negative—that arise from your values and guide how you think about it. This makes them a mental stance, more about judgment than about a momentary feeling or a specific action. Think of it as the difference between a belief about whether something is worth endorsing and the actual emotion you feel in the moment or the thing you end up doing. Feelings about a situation are emotions or affective responses, not the settled evaluations that attitudes represent. Actions taken in emergencies are behaviors that result from many influences, including attitudes, but they’re not the attitude itself. Nonverbal cues are outward expressions that can reflect attitudes but are not the attitude itself.
