Attitudes are personal biases, preferences, and subjective assessments that predispose one to act or respond in a predictable manner. Attitudes lead people to like or dislike something, or to consider things good or bad, important or unimportant, worth caring about or not worth caring about. For example, gender sensitivity, respect for others, or respecting one’s body and believing that it is important to care for are attitudes that are important to preserving health and functioning well (adapted from Greene & Simons- Morton, 1984).
