“…By integrating interactive perspectives (Amabile, 1996) and attitude theories (McMillan and Conner, 2003;Umeh and Patel, 2004), this study finds a negative moderating effect of social norms on the association between the openness to experience trait and CLA. This means that the manifestation of the trait in consumers' social lives is complex and lies in complying with the expectations of others (Olsen and Grunert, 2010).…”

“…A personal trait may lead to a behavior corresponding to the trait only to the extent that significant others approve, but that trait has little or no impact on a behavior if there is a hostile social context (McMillan and Conner, 2003;Umeh and Patel, 2004). Previous studies have also indicated that social norms can be a critical source of the choice of luxury attributes (Escalas and Bettman, 2005;Wong and Ahuvia, 1998).…”

Purpose -This study discusses and tests the combined effects of openness to experience and power, and the moderator effects of social norms and perceived resources on the choice of luxury attributes for branded products (CLA) in Vietnam.Design/methodology/approach -Based on a self-administered survey data of 207 Vietnamese consumers, a structural equation modelling approach for moderator analysis with latent constructs is used to test the hypotheses.Findings -Openness to experience and power have both direct and interactive positive influences on the choice of luxury product attributes. In particular, the effect of openness to experience is weakened by the negative moderator effect of social norms, but the effect of power is strengthened by the positive moderator effect of perceived resources. The inclusion of interactions increases the explained variance of the choice of luxury product attributes from 24.8 % to 35.8%.Research limitations/implications -Future studies would benefit to investigate other personality traits (e.g., extroversion or agreeableness), personal values (e.g., achievement), social norms (e.g., descriptive norms) and resources (e.g., time).Practical implications -The study findings suggest that brand managers should attend the how individual and social factors interacts in explaining the choice of luxury product attributes.Originality/value -This study is the first discussing, testing and finding empirical evidence supporting the combined effects of openness to experience and power on the choice of luxury product attributes as well as moderator effects in these relationships.

“…In addition to exploring the key predictors of behaviour change included in the studies on exercise behaviour (attitudes, intentions and perceptions of behavioural control), the decision was made to include the following outcome variables: subjective norms, descriptive norms, moral norms, anticipated regret and identity, as previous literature has supported that they play an important role in influencing alcohol consumption (e.g., Conner, Warren, Close & Sparks, 1999;Cooke, Sniehotta & Schuz, 2007;Mcmillan & Conner, 2003).…”

Objectives This study explored whether self‐esteem would moderate the effectiveness of a self‐affirmation manipulation at increasing openness to personally relevant health‐risk information. Design The study employed a prospective experimental design. Method Participants (N = 328) completed either a self‐affirmation manipulation or a control task, prior to reading information detailing the health‐related consequences of taking insufficient exercise. They then completed a series of measures assessing their cognitions towards exercise and their derogation of the information. Exercise behaviour was assessed at 1‐week follow‐up. Results Self‐esteem moderated the impact of self‐affirmation on the majority of outcomes. For participants with low self‐esteem, the self‐affirmation manipulation resulted in more positive attitudes and intentions towards exercise, together with lower levels of derogation of the health‐risk information. By contrast, there was no effect of the self‐affirmation manipulation on outcomes for participants with high self‐esteem. Conclusion Findings suggest that self‐affirmation manipulations might be of particular benefit for those with low self‐esteem in terms of promoting openness towards health‐risk information. This is promising from a health promotion perspective, as individuals with low self‐esteem often represent those most in need of intervention. What is already known on this subject? Self‐affirmation has been shown to result in more open processing of personally relevant health‐risk information. Individuals low in self‐esteem tend to process such information more defensively than those high in self‐esteem. What does this study add? It explores whether self‐esteem moderates the impact of self‐affirmation on responses to health‐risk information. Findings suggest that individuals with low self‐esteem benefit most from the self‐affirmation manipulation. This has important applied implications, as individuals with low self‐esteem may be most in need of intervention.

“…He found that TPB was an effective theoretical framework in predicting intention to commit unethical behaviour. This finding was further upheld by more recent studies (Buchan, 2005;Carpenter & Reimers, 2005;McMillan & Conner, 2003), where TPB was shown to be an effective theoretical framework for predicting intentions of ethical behaviour.…”

This conceptual paper studies the application of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TBP) in academic dishonesty with the mediating variable of ethical ideologies. The study reviews literature on the Theory of Planned Behavior and past studies pertaining to academic dishonesty. The paper analyses the relationship of the variables of TPB on academic dishonesty with ethical ideologies. A conceptual research framework is presented; it provides insight into predicting and understanding how academic dishonesty can occur. The framework suggests that ethical ideology is significantly strengthened by the application of TPB in understanding and predicting how academic dishonesty occurs. Given that ethical ideology provides guidance in judging right and wrong, duty, obligation and moral responsibility, it is an appropriate tool for the researcher, who needs better understanding to diagnose the influences of ethical ideology on unethical behaviour.
