L'apprentissage et le changement des attitudes: L'approche interactionniste de Staats
Keywords:
formation des attitudes, conditionnement classique, behaviorisme social, interaction socialeAbstract
The principles of classical conditioning underlie attitude change and formation. Besides releasing emotional responses, attitudes have a reinforcing and directing function. They are essential in the analysis of social interaction where the person is a social stimulus for the others, a stimulus which gives rise to positive or negative emotional responses, and which has a reinforcing and directing function in approach or avoidance behavior. Moreover, a person's attitudes toward himself, his self-image, partly determines his behavior and the behavior of others in relation to him. Such are the principles which may guide the choices of intervention toward attitude learning.
