The theory of reasoned action as a model of marijuana use: Tests of implicit assumptions and applicability to high-risk young women.

Abstract: The theory of reasoned action (TRA) is used to model decisions about substance use among young mothers who became premaritally pregnant at age 17 or younger. The results of structural equation modeling to test the TRA indicated that most relationships specified by the model were significant and in the predicted direction. Attitude was a stronger predictor of intention than norm, but both were significantly related to intention, and intention was related to actual marijuana use 6 months later. Outcome beliefs w… Show more

“…While numerous studies have used the TRA or the TPB to predict cannabis use (Ajzen, Timko, & White, 1982;Bentler & Speckart, 1979;Bearden & Woodside, 1978;Conner & McMillan, 1999;Hames, Evangeli, Harrop, & di Forti, 2012;Malmberg et al, 2011;Morrisson, Golder, Keller, & Gillmore, 2002;Pomazel & Brown, 1977;Richard, Van der Pligt & de Vries, 1996;Ritter, 1988), no studies to date have tested the TPB to predict cannabis use in a sample of individuals who have recovered from cannabis use disorders.…”

“…These predictors may indirectly influence novel product use through more proximal precursors, including behavioral intentions and patterns of smoking across high school. Favorable intentions to use substances predict later use of cigarettes and alcohol [24,25], and marijuana [26,27]. …”
