BACKGROUND Shared decision making (SDM) requires health professionals to change their practice. Socio-cognitive theories, such as the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB), provide the needed theoretical underpinnings for designing behaviour change interventions. OBJECTIVE We systematically reviewed studies that used the TPB to assess SDM behaviours in health professionals to explore how theory i...

The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) provides a conceptual model for understanding individual cognitions that influence behavioural intentions and enactment of the actual behaviours. This study examined the applicability of the TPB and the additional predictive role of perceived risk in predicting intended use of voluntary HIV counselling and testing (VCT) services. We conducted a cross-sectio...

Today, in part because of the work done by Ajzen, Fishbein and their colleagues, the core of their theory seems obvious individuals are more likely to perform the behaviours that they feel positive toward and intend to perform. Many models of behaviour share the assumption that behaviour results from a reasoned process, where individuals consider their options, evaluate the consequences and mak...

BACKGROUND Psychological models can be used to understand and predict behaviour in a wide range of settings. However, they have not been consistently applied to health professional behaviours, and the contribution of differing theories is not clear. The aim of this study was to explore the usefulness of a range of psychological theories to predict health professional behaviour relating to manag...

The Theory of planned behavior (TPB) was proposed by Icek Ajzen in 1988 which was an expectancy-value theory that provided a framework for the study of behavioral and normative beliefs affecting health behaviors. 1 The theory of planned behavior (TPB) is a popular framework for understanding the informational and motivational influences of exercise and physical activity behavior, 2 and it can e...

This study explored the role of donor prototype evaluations (perceptions of the typical organ donor) in organ donation communication decisions using an extended theory of planned behaviour (TPB) model. The model incorporated attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioural control, moral norm, self-identity, and donor prototype evaluations to predict intentions to record consent on an organ don...

Abstract This research applies the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to measure gap between designers’ intentions towards heritage conservation and actual design decisions. It aims at contributing identify which psychological constructs (attitude, norm, perception control) are hindering implementation sustainable approaches in practice. The results suggest that attitudes have a significant corr...

INTRODUCTION The male-to-female transgender (waria) is part of a key population at higher risk for HIV. This study aims to test whether psychosocial determinants as defined by the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) can explain behaviours related to condom use among waria. Three preparatory behaviours (getting, carrying, and offering a condom) and two condom use behaviours (during receptive and i...
