The more an individual expresses or acts on an attitude the stronger the attitude becomes and the more automated the attitude becomes.

Conscious thinking about the attitude should create more of an overlap between both implicit and explicit attitude. [19]
Implicit measures are of attitudes at an unconscious level, that function out of awareness. [14] Both explicit and implicit attitudes can shape an individual's behavior. [15] [16] Implicit attitudes, however, are most likely to affect behavior when the demands are steep and an individual feels stressed or distracted. [17]

Implicit on one hand is obtained through social aspects and association, while explicit cognition is gained through propositional attitudes or beliefs of certain thoughts, [19] Implicit cognition can be incorporated with a mixture of attention, goals, self-association, and at times even motivational processes. Researchers have used different ...
