Testing the Theory of Planned Behavior to Predict Mammography Intention

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the knowledge, attitude, and purchase intention on electronic money among undergraduate students approached by the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The study involved 100 undergraduate students of Bogor Agricultural University (IPB) which were selected randomly. The design of the study was cross sectional study with simple random sampling method. The results showed that attitude and intention to use was the high category, while the greatest proportion of subjective norm and behavioral control were at the middle category. Meanwhile, according to the model of Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), attitude, subjective norm, and behavioral control had positive correlations with intention to use e-money. Attitude and subjective norm affected intention to use e-money. Abstrak. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengidentifikasi sikap, norma subjektif, dan kontrol perilaku pembentukan intensi penggunaan uang elektronik pada kelompok mahasiswa IPB Menggunakan Pendekatan Theory Of Planned Behaviour. Penelitian ini melibatkan 100 mahasiswa strata 1 (S1) Institut Pertanian Bogor yang diambil secara acak. Desain penelitian ini adalah cross sectional study. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sikap dan niat menggunakan contoh berada pada kategori tinggi, sedangkan proporsi terbesar norma subjektif dan kontrol perilaku terhadap uang elektronik berada pada kategori sedang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara karakteristik individu yaitu uang saku dengan niat menggunakan serta adanya hubungan antara sikap, norma subjektif, dan kontrol perilaku dengan niat menggunakan uang elektronik. Hasil uji regresi menunjukkan bahwa sikap dan norma subjektif berpengaruh terhadap niat menggunakan uang elektronik. Kata kunci: niat menggunakan, theory of planned behavior (TPB), uang elektronik

Mammography Screening and the Theory of Planned Behavior: Suggestions Toward an Extended Model of Prediction

“…The addition of perceived behavioral control measure in the TRA was based on the rationale that it would allow prediction of behaviors that were not entirely under volitional control. In most studies regarding mammography screening, results were consistent with this assumption, and control measures were found to strongly and independently predict behavior (Drossaert, Boer, & Seydel, 2003;Montano & Taplin, 1991) and intention (Godin et al, 2001;Steele & Porche, 2005;Montano et al, 1997;Steadman & Rutter, 2004). The studies that did not report a strong perceived behavioral control effect, examined novel behaviors (Rutter, 2000;Steadman et al, 2002;Tolma et al, 2003) in that none of the study participants ever had a mammogram before.…”

“…Of the 26 articles, 16 were excluded for the following reasons: two articles were reviews (AshingGiwa, 1999;Gullate, 2006); one was a descriptive integration of four theoretical models (Curry & Emmons, 1994); one article was a dissertation abstract, another dealt with questionnaire development, both were in relation to the Steele and Porche (2005) study that was included in the review; five articles used a combination of separate constructs from the HBM and the TPB (Champion, 1994;Ham, 2005Ham, , 2006Savage & Clarke, 1996;Soskolne, Marie, & Manor, 2007); one article investigated physicians' recommendation about mammography screening (Taylor, Montano, & Koepsell, 1994); two were papers reporting duplicate data (Drossaert, Boer, & Seydel, 2005;Tolma et al, 2006); two papers concerned interventions based on protection motivation theory (Naito, O'Callaghan, & Morrissey, 2009) and implementation intentions (O'Neil et al, 2008); and one study was exclusively using TRA (Taplin & Montano, 1993). Finally for the study of Michels and colleagues (1995), it was not possible to locate the full article.…”

“…In three retrospective studies, previous behavior was also used as a proxy for future behavior(Montano et al, 1997;Steele & Porche, 2005;Terán et al, 2007). The measurement of intention was diversely defined across studies, due to differences in screening frequency, including intention to obtain a mammogram ''every two years''(Godin et al 2001), ''annually''(Steele & Porche, 2005), ''within the next six months''(Bowie et al, 2003;Tolma et al, 2003), and ''in the next year''Downloaded by [The University of Texas at El Paso] at 22:32 04 January 2015 Model of Mammography Screening Prediction…”

Attitudes and Beliefs Associated With Mammography in a Multiethnic Population in Israel

“…The TPB model was tested looking at mammography intention and its association with the TPB variables in other studies. In a study of rural southeastern Louisiana women, subjective norms were associated with intention to have a mammogram and intention was associated with reported mammography performance in a causal path analysis model (Steele & Porche, 2005). Godin et al (2001) also used the TPB and found that subjective norms predicted intention to have a mammogram in Canada.…”

Reliability and Validity of the Preterm Infant Feeding Survey: Instrument Development and Testing

“…The theory of planned behavior and its predecessor, the theory of reasoned action, have been used in research examining health behaviors such as exercise ( Brickell, Chatzisarantis, & Pretty, 2006), mammography intention (Steele & Porche, 2005a, 2005b, multivitamin use (Pawlak et al, 2005), and smoking cessation ( Bledsoe, 2006 ). Additionally, the TPB has guided breastfeeding research that examined factors related to breastfeeding initiation and duration for mothers of healthy, full-term infants (Duckett et al, 1998;Heinig et al, 2006;Khoury et al, 2005;Kloeblen, Thompson, & Miner, 1999;Saunders-Goldson & Edwards, 2004;Swanson & Power, 2005).…”
