“…The current study found that action planning and coping planning did not have a mediating or moderating role in the behavioral intention - > ULFE-M pathway. It is inconsistent with previous researches ( Cowie et al, 2018 ; Lin et al, 2018 ). There may be two reasons for this: First, ULFE were strictly supervised by health care providers during the hospitalization of breast cancer patients after surgery.…”

Theoretical Explanation of Upper Limb Functional Exercise and Its Maintenance in Postoperative Patients With Breast Cancer

Background: Upper limb functional exercise (ULFE) has a positive effect on promoting the rehabilitation of upper limb function. However, little is known, about what drives postoperative patients to engage in and even maintain the advised exercises. This study integrated the health action process approach (HAPA) and the theory of planned behavior theory (TPB) to investigate the psychosocial determinants on the initiation and maintenance of ULFE in breast cancer patients. In addition, this study also tests key hypotheses relating to reasoned and implicit pathways to ULFE and its maintenance among postoperative patients with breast cancer.Methods: Purposive sampling was used to recruit patients from two breast cancer wards in a provincial hospital in Jiangsu, China. Patients (N = 430) completed self-reported questionnaire about constructs from integrated theories concerning ULFE at an initial time point (T1): task self-efficacy, positive outcome expectations, negative outcome expectations, risk perception, attitude behavior, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, behavioral intention, and ULFE-in hospital (ULFE-IH). Three months later (T2), patients self-reported: maintenance self-efficacy, action planning, coping planning, recovery self-efficacy, and ULFE-maintenance (ULFE-M).Results: The model has a good fit (GoF = 0.48). For behavioral intention of ULFE, subjective norm (β = 0.35) and perceived behavioral control (β = 0.61) were positively directly related to behavioral intention. Regarding the initiation of ULFE, perceived behavioral control (β = 0.47) and behavioral intention (β = 0.42) had a direct positive relation to ULFE-IH. In the maintenance of ULFE, action planning (β = 0.30), coping planning (β = 0.21), maintenance self-efficacy (β = 0.32), and recovery self-efficacy (β = 0.09) all had significant positive relation on ULFE-M. In addition, maintenance self-efficacy had a significant positive association on action planning (β = 0.80), coping planning (β = 0.74), and recovery self-efficacy (β = 0.67). Coping planning was significantly predicted by behavioral intention (β = 0.07). Additionally, behavioral intention is a mediator of subjective norm (β = 0.14) and perceived behavioral control (β = 0.25) to ULFE-IH. Action planning, coping planning, and recovery self-efficacy are mediators of maintaining self-efficacy to ULFE-M (β = 0.46).Conclusions: This study presents the first attempt to integrate the health behavior model in ULFE in postoperative patients with breast cancer. The study has shown that the HAPA-TPB integrated model has good applicability and effectiveness to explain and predict ULFE initiation and maintenance. Future work can be considered to develop appropriate intervention strategies based on this integrated behavioral theory.

“…When other variables were entered in the equation predicting behaviour; however, it was action planning, and not intention, that emerged as the significant predictor of behaviour for three of the four self‐care behaviours and action planning was found to have a full mediational effect for the pathway between intention to behaviour. These findings highlight the importance of planning when, where and how to engage in self‐care and how it can facilitate the gap between behaviour intentions and engagement as predicted by the HAPA (Schwarzer, 2008) and is consistent with findings of the mediational role for planning in previous research on health behaviours, such as physical activity (Cowie, White, & Hamilton, 2018; Hamilton, Cox, & White, 2012). Planning may be particularly important for psychologists who have complex roles and are balancing multiple demands such as coursework (for trainees), clinical work and personal demands.…”

The present study examined psychological, spiritual, physical/leisure and social self‐care behaviours among psychologists using a major model of predicting human behaviour, the theory of planned behaviour (TPB). The study used a mixed method approach with two stages of data collection. Psychologists (N = 200) completed an online questionnaire assessing TPB constructs (attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioural control and intention) and additional constructs of action planning, coping planning, peer and supervisor norms and organizational climate. Two weeks later, participants (n = 110) completed a follow‐up questionnaire assessing their self‐care behaviour. Results indicated general support for the standard TPB constructs in predicting self‐care intentions for psychologists and the additional construct of action planning mediated the intention‐behaviour relationship across most self‐care dimensions. Findings from the current research provide further understanding of the factors influencing self‐care engagement among psychologists and can be used to inform development of strategies to foster greater engagement in self‐care behaviour.

“…The necessity to better formalize the proposed “extended” models of the TPB has been advanced elsewhere (Rhodes, 2015). For example, some previous research has reported the relevance of considering the interplay between implicit and explicit processing components of self-control (Pfeffer & Strobach, 2017), whereas others have reported the interplay between some social resources (e.g., social support) and psychosocial variables (e.g., action planning) to enrich the TPB and enhance its predictive validity (Cowie, White, & Hamilton, 2018). The present study suggests to more routinely test and report interaction effects between the original TPB variables, and more systematically integrate and explore the interplay between some psychosocial and environmental variables when focusing on the processes involved the intentions–behavior relationship.…”

The theory of planned behavior (TPB) has been criticized for not including interaction effects between its major constructs and for not dealing with the processes involved in the intentions-physical activity (PA) relationship. This study tested an extended TPB model including interaction effects between TPB constructs (i.e., attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control [PBC], and intentions) and additional variables hypothesized to be moderators of the intentions-PA relationship (i.e., planning and perceived built environment). TPB variables, planning, perceived built environment, and PA were measured at Time 1 (N ϭ 612). PA measure was repeated 3 months later at Time 2 (N ϭ 219). Two hierarchical linear regressions were performed to examine the determinants of intentions at T1 and the determinants of PA at T2. Analyses demonstrated significant Attitudes ϫ PBC and Subjective Norms ϫ PBC interactions on intentions (ps Ͻ .05). A high level of subjective norms and attitudes strengthen the relationship between PBC and intentions. Analyses also highlighted a significant Intentions ϫ Planning ϫ Perceived Built Environment triple interaction on PA (p Ͻ .05). The relationship between intentions and PA is only significant for participants with a medium or high level of planning and a high perceived proximity to PA facilities. Future studies should test interaction effects between TPB variables and explore the interplay between psychosocial and environmental variables when focusing on the intentions-PA relationship.
