This article puts forth a perspective that attitudes and attitude strength can serve as precursors to object attachment. To help the reader understand this perspective, I provide an overview of the attitude and attitude strength constructs and distinguish them from object attachment. I then explain a number of prominent ways in which attitudes and attitude strength can influence behaviors that might be important contributors to object attachment. In doing so, this paper offers researchers interested in object attachment an alternative lens to study how people might come to be attached to their objects.

态度和态度强度是物体附着的先驱

本文提出了一种观点，即态度和态度强度可以作为对象依附的先驱。为了帮助读者理解这种观点，我对姿态和姿态强度构造进行了概述，并将其与物体附着区分开来。然后，我解释了态度和态度强度可以影响行为的许多重要方式，这些行为可能是导致物体附着的重要因素。为此，本文为对物体附着感兴趣的研究人员提供了另一种视角，以研究人们如何附着在物体上。
