  14. Formation of Attitude: 1.Experiences: Our personal experiences with people and situations develop our attitude towards such persons and situations.Through job experience, people develop attitudes towards working conditions, salaries, supervision, group dynamics and so on

  15. 2.Perceptual biases: Perception is the result of a complex interaction of various senses such as feelings, seeing, hearing and so on and plays an important part in our attitude and behavioural formation.For example, if a manager perceives a subordinate’s ability as limited, he will give him limited responsibility. Similarly, we lose many good friends due to our changed perception about them.

  16. 3.Observation of the other person’s attitude: When we like someone, we try to emulate that person’s attitude.For example, when we are impressed by someone keeping calm under stressful circumstances and we appreciate such calmness, we might try to do the same.

  17. 3.Association: Our association with the group we belong to strongly influences our attitude. Our close association with a group would encourage us to be consistent with the attitude of the group.

  18. 4.Personality: Personality is a set of traits and characteristics, habit patterns and conditioned responses to certain stimuli that formulate the impression that a person makes upon others and this impression is a function of a person’s attitude.
