Assertion: The relationship between attitudes and behavior is often expected to be logical, where behavior aligns with attitudes.
Reasoning: Individuals may not always exhibit their attitudes through their behavior.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Both Assertion (A) and reasoning (R) are correct and but R is not the correct explanation of A.
The relationship between attitudes and behavior is often expected to be logical, where behavior aligns with attitudes. However, individuals may not always exhibit their attitudes through their behavior. Similarly, one's actual behavior may contradict their attitudes towards a specific topic. Psychologists have identified factors that contribute to consistency between attitudes and behavior.
