The two psychological constructs—social norms and attitudes—are connected but distinct (social norms can influence attitudes and vice versa). One of the most frequently cited social norms theories, Fishbein and Ajzen’s theory of reasoned action, describes attitudes as internally-motivated judgements that people make about something, such as: “I don...
A tendency exists in the social norms literature, particularly in social psychology, economics, and implementation science, to focus largely on discordance between attitudes and norms (as depicted in Fig. 1). Since the early work on norms and students’ use of alcohol, a large number of empirical studies investigated how discordant norms and attitud...
Another implicit bias in development is to see “culture” only as a source of problems rather than as a space for possible solutions. But, in any given cultural context both potentially harmful and potentially protective norms likely exist (See Fig. 3). As an example, imagine a setting where a norm exists among adolescents under which drinking alcoh...
It is rare (although not completely impossible) for social norms to be the exclusive reason motivating people to engage in a harmful action or practice. As many have observed [95,96,97,98,99,100], the ecology of factors contributing to a given practice goes well beyond one specific driver. Understanding how norms intersect with other factors is ess...
Partly due to practitioners’ increased efforts to measure social norms as part of programmatic monitoring and evaluation, data on the prevalence of specific norms is starting to appear at conferences, and in reports and academic papers. These data are often presented to explain the extent to which a given norm sustains a particular practice. Howeve...
Practitioners studying the effect of social norms on a practice X (such as child marriage) might be tempted to look for a norm that people are expected to do X (marry their daughter young). An example comes from female genital cutting, where research conducted in West Africa demonstrated that, in some areas, the practice “cutting your daughter” was...
Social norms theory can help recognise the risks in designing campaigns that highlight the great number of people complying with a harmful practice. Those concerned about an issue frequently attempt to motivate change by publicizing the size of the problem: “1 in 3 women globally are abused by their partner”; or: “The average American intakes 44.7 ...
Local worldviews, norms and attitudes intertwine to sustain cultural practices in ways that may be difficult for practitioners to fully decipher in culturally unfamiliar contexts. It can thus be dangerous to design a new desired system of norms from the “outside”. The consequences of the new normative equilibrium might be as harmful as the practice...

Mar 11, 2024 · The “knowledge, attitude, practice” (KAP) model plays an important role in the prevention and control of hypertension, and its theory divides the process of people's change into three steps-acquiring knowledge, generating attitudes, and forming practices.
