EDITORIAL: ATTITUDES CAN BE MEASURED! BUT WHAT IS AN ATTITUDE? (2007, background): “Further fueling the debate, some researchers argued that it may be ill–founded to think of attitudes as stable, trait–like representations (e.g., Schwarz & Bohner, 2001).”
Measuring explicit attitude toward doping: Review of the psychometric properties of the Performance Enhancement Attitude Scale (2009, background): “…from memory in response to perceptual cues to viewing attitudes as constructed dynamically in situational, cognitive and motivational contexts (Schwarz & Bohner, 2001) has highlighted the importance of subjective experiences associated with attitudes that integrate into behavioural tendencies…”
Cognitive aspects of survey methodology (2007, background): “An alternative approach treats attitudes as evaluative judgments that are formed on the spot, based on whatever information is accessible at that point in time (for variants of this approach see Lord & Lepper, 1999; Schwarz, in press; Schwarz & Bohner, 2001; Tourangeau, 1992).”
Likert Scale: Explored and Explained (2015, background): “The issue is how to quantify these subjective preferential thinking, feeling and action in a validated and reliable manner: a help is offered by Likert scale [9,10].”
Attitude Toward Entrepreneurship: Structure, Prediction from Behavioral Beliefs, and Relation to Entrepreneurial Intention (2016, background): “Attitude toward a behavior is a person’s overall evaluation of performing the behavior in question (Ajzen 1991; Fishbein and Ajzen 1975; Mather and Romo 2007; Schwarz and Bohner 2001).”
The Dominance of Associative Theorizing in Implicit Attitude Research: Propositional and Behavioral Alternatives (2011, background): “, & SHANKS, D. R., (2002). The role of awareness in Pavlovian conditioning: Empirical evidence and theoretical interpretations.”
A History of Implicit Social Cognition Where Is It Coming From? Where Is It Now? Where Is It Going? (2010, background): “As Schwarz and Bohner (2001) pointed out, this debate cannot be resolved on empirical grounds, as any result predicted by one theoretical framework can be reinterpreted by the other one.”
WORK–FAMILY CONFLICT AND EMOTIONS: EFFECTS AT WORK AND AT HOME (2006, background): “Conceptually, Hastie and Parke (1986) and Schwarz and Bohner (2001) suggested that attitudinal states are “on-line” judgments constructed at the time of assessment that are influenced by information that is readily available at that time.”
Attitudes as Object-Evaluation Associations of Varying Strength. (2007, background): “In light of the research summarized in the preceding section, I have to admit to some bewilderment regarding recent discussions portraying all (or virtually all) attitudes as momentary constructions (e.g., Schwarz & Bohner, 2001; Zaller & Feldman, 1992; see also Schwarz, this issue).”
