What does the research on attitudes suggest?

A) It is not possible to have implicit and explicit attitudes toward objects that are different in valence (or direction) from each other.
B) It is possible for people to have opposite implicit and explicit attitudes (in terms of valence and direction) toward the same object.
C) People's implicit and explicit attitudes toward objects are never correlated with each other.
D) Some people have only implicit attitudes toward a certain object,while others only have an explicit attitude toward it.

The research on attitudes suggests that it is possible for people to have opposite implicit and explicit attitudes towards the same object. This means that someone might consciously report a positive attitude towards an object, but their automatic, uncontrollable response (measured by implicit attitude tests) may indicate a negative attitude towards the same object. This finding has important implications for understanding how attitudes can impact behavior, as implicit attitudes may be more predictive of behavior than explicit attitudes.
