beliefs about the attitude object
• Behavioral intentions: motivation to act in response
to the attitude object

in shaping attitudes

Emotions, Attitudes, and Behavior
How emotions influence attitudes:
1. Feelings are shaped by cumulative emotional
episodes (not just evaluation of beliefs)
2. We ‘listen in’ on our emotions when determining
our attitude toward something
Potential conflict between cognitive and
emotional processes
Emotions also directly affect behavior
• e.g. facial expression

Generating Positive Emotions at Work
The emotions-attitudes-
behavior model illustrates that
attitudes are shaped by
ongoing emotional experiences.
Thus, successful companies
actively create more positive
than negative emotional
episodes.

Job Satisfaction and Performance
Happy workers are somewhat more productive workers,
but:
1. General attitude is a poor predictor of specific
behaviors
2. Job performance affects satisfaction only when
rewarded
3. Effect on performance strongest in complex jobs
because of greater employee influence on job
performance (e.g. limited in assembly lines)
