In effect another name for speech act theories; though, strictly speaking, attitude theories analyze the meaning of certain words or sentences in terms of the expression of attitudes rather than the performing of various other acts that one can perform by speaking, such as prescribing or denying.
The name therefore applies to emotivism more happily than to, say, prescriptivism or the speech act theory of negation.
