class Person
  include ActiveModel::AttributeMethods
 
  attr_accessor :name
  attribute_method_suffix '_short?'
  define_attribute_methods :name
 
  private
 
  def attribute_short?(attr)
    send(attr).length < 5
  end
end
 
person = Person.new
person.name = 'Bob'
person.name          # => "Bob"
person.name_short?   # => true
