TL;DR: In this article, facial electromyographic (EMG) activity was used to distinguish both the valence and intensity of the affective reaction to the visual stimuli, and independent judges were unable to determine from viewing videotapes of the subjects' facial displays whether a positive or negative stimulus had been presented or whether a mildly or moderately intense stimulus was presented.

TL;DR: The Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale (IIFAS) as mentioned in this paper was developed to measure the infant feeding attitudes of postpartum women, and the IIFAS was used to predict duration of breast-feeding among a sample of 725 women who initiated that method of feeding their babies while in the hospital.

TL;DR: It is essential that physicians and other health care professionals seeking to increase the rate of initiation and duration of breast-feeding build on the body of information concerning factors that influence a woman's attitudes about breast- feeding to develop new and and more powerful interventions.

TL;DR: This paper used a misattribution source to investigate the motivational state underlying cognitive dissonance-induced attitude change and found that participants in the high-choice/positive-cue condition exhibited greater attitude change than subjects in the remaining conditions.
