Morphology
irregardful + attitude
The noun is compositionally understandable if a learner can parse the nonstandard adjective 'irregardful' as negative prefix + 'regardful' (i.e. not regardful) and combine that with 'attitude' to mean an attitude showing lack of consideration. However, 'irregardful' is rare/nonstandard and 'regardful' itself is uncommon, so a typical B1 learner may not recognise the morphological parts easily; thus the sense is partly predictable but likely requires morphological reasoning or prior exposure.
Etymology
Irregardful attitude comes from the image of a person who turns away and gives no regard, meaning no attention or respect, to others, and attitude here means a way of behaving. That's why it means 'ignoring' other people's needs or feelings.
