Final answer:
2) Attitudes are enduring evaluations that encompass affective feelings, behaviors, and cognitive beliefs and are influenced by internal and external factors.
Step-by-step explanation:
The relatively enduring overall evaluations of objects, products, services, issues, or people are known as attitudes. Attitudes involve an affective component (feelings), a behavioral component (the effect of the attitude on behavior), and a cognitive component (belief and knowledge). They are formed and influenced by a variety of internal and external factors, including personal experiences, cognitive dissonance, persuasion through advertising with the central and peripheral routes, conformity, compliance, obedience, preconceived notions, and existing biases in information processing.
