Abstract: Unsafe attitudes will lead to unsafe behaviors.Thus,changing unsafe attitudes is an important way to prevent accidents.Humans' safety attitude is their cognition,feeling and implicit behavioral response to the unsafe factors,safety state and safeguards in the social organization they are in.Based on this definition,the connotations of safety attitude were analyzed.Based on this,the internal changing process of safety attitude was explored from the perspective of content imbalance and psychological needs.Furthermore,an external effect model of changing safety attitude was built based on the communication and persuasion theory.The result shows that to change safety attitude,the influence of persuaders and the impact of safety information should be increased,the psychological resistance of audiences should be decreased and the coherence of environment should be improved.

Key words: safety attitude, formation mechanism, internal changing process, external effect model, change methods
