Many recent experiments have used parallel Implicit Association Test (IAT) and selfreport measures of attitudes. These measures are sometimes strongly correlated. However, many of these studies find apparent dissociations in the form of (a) weak correlations between the two types of measures, (b) separation of their means on scales that should coincide if they assess the same construct, or (c) ...

Historical developments regarding the attitude concept are reviewed, and set the stage for consideration of a theoretical perspective that views attitude, not as a hypothetical construct, but as evaluative knowledge. A model of attitudes as object-evaluation associations of varying strength is summarized, along with research supporting the model's contention that at least some attitudes are rep...

Attitude estimation is often a prerequisite for control of the attitude or orientation of mechanical systems. Current attitude estimation algorithms use coordinate representations for the group of rigid body orientations. All coordinate representations of the group of orientations have associated problems. While minimal coordinate representations exhibit kinematic singularities for large rotati...
