When using the Backbone.js framework, the internal hash containing the model's state, ``++model.attributes++``, should not be accessed directly. Doing so bypasses the listeners set on the model and could put your application in a bad state.


Instead, you should use ``++set++`` to update, ``++get++`` to read, and ``++_.clone(model.attributes)++`` to obtain a copy.

myModel.attributes.someAttribute = 1;
