found one. Special Section on Attitudes and Behavior in Social Psychology: Do as I say, not as I do

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

"The observed low positive correlations of attitude and behaviour suggest that the notion that it is first necessary to change attitudes before one can change behaviour must be reevaluated. "

Attitude adjustment -- is what dictatorships do to people who don't do as they're told. Sounds about right, in this case.

Hi Charlet

 

[Jacqueline Hyde]

Let me translate that into normal person. "The way people think they should act and the way they actually act don't have much to do with each other. Therefore, the idea that your behavior comes from your ideas about how you should behave doesn't seem to be accurate." In other words, "do as I say" doesn't work because it only influences people's thoughts/attitudes, not their behaviors.
