Now, the Gemara doesn't say straight out which parts of davening should be said with atifah.
But there's a Gemara in Bracha, Staff Nun Aleph, that tells us that when one says Birch Samazan with a Zimun, the Kos Shel Bracha requires Atifa.
So there's a minach that when you participate in a Davar Shebek Dusha, which is even more Chamer than Zimun, because you need a minyan for a Davar Shebek Dusha, then Kalv Chamer you need an Atifa.
Meaning if the only data point we have is the Gemara telling us
that Zimon with the Kodesh El Bracha requires Atifah, then Kadol Chomer, Dovah Shem Kedushah, is going to require Atifah.
So the minig is therefore also to say Shmon Asher with Atifah, because the Pasuk says, That's a Pasuk in Tehillim.
So it says, that a person is, when he's engaged in tefillah, he has an atifah.
So that's as far as, like Kaddish and Kedushah, and as far as Shmona Esrei.
So those things should have a proper atifah, a person should have the talus over their head, if they are a married person.
So kriyashma could be different.
There is a Mishnah in Brachos, in Daffy Laman Beis, that quotes the Sheet of Beis Hillel, that everyone could say kriyashma, however they prefer to say it.
So you're allowed to say kriya shema, standing, sitting, lying down, walking, whatever you want.
They still learn this from lech t'cha v'derech.
Lech t'cha v'derech is however you happen to be.
Beishamai says, no, v'shachachav kumecha, that when you're saying kriya shema shel avis, you need to lie down.
When you're saying kriya shema shel shach, you need to sit up.
Now, according to Beis Hillel, you're not allowed to even be makbid to assume a particular position during Kriya Shema.
Now, normally, Dovah Shabbat Kedushah requires both Amida and Atifa.
