The Meta–Cognitive Model (MCM) of Attitudes: Implications for Attitude Measurement, Change, and Strength
Abstract
We present a Meta–Cognitive Model (MCM) of attitudes. According to the MCM, an attitude object can be associated with both positive and negative evaluations that can be detected with modern implicit (automatic) measures of attitudes. These evaluative associations can be further associated with validity tags that are also consulted when completing deliberative attitude measures. We explain how the MCM accounts for existing findings in the attitudes literature and discuss recent studies and novel predictions derived from the MCM framework. Particular attention is devoted to factors that produce discrepancies between automatic and deliberative measures of attitudes and their consequences. Implications for attitude change, attitude strength, and the domain of prejudice are also considered.

“A second approach that has captured the attention of social psychologists more recently argues that people can hold separate explicit (conscious, deliberative) and implicit (unconscious, automatic) attitudes (e.g., Greenwald & Banaji, 1995; Wilson, Lindsey, & Schooler, 2000 ) which can take on different values.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
