“…This result suggests that a continuous NCSP could prompt more people to receive periodic stomach cancer screening. Montano et al (11) confirmed a significant correlation between previous experience with breast cancer screening and intention. Steele and Porche et al (14) reported that people who had experience with a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test to screen for prostate cancer were likely to have a high intention of requesting a PSA test in the future.…”

“…Insight about factors that facilitate or impede participation in the stomach cancer screening program may be helpful in improving participation rates. Most studies conducted in other countries have focused on participation in breast (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15) or prostate cancer (16,17) screening programs, which is one reason that these two cancers are the most frequently diagnosed in both women and men. Given that stomach cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in Korea, this study focused on the intention to receive stomach cancer screening.…”

“…Using the theory of planned behavior model, some health-behavior studies have proposed that sociodemographic factors, previous screening experience, economic status, and perceived risk may affect not only intention and behavior but also attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control (8,11,16,17,21,22).…”

Although stomach cancer screening is effective for reducing mortality, it is underutilized in Korea. By applying an extended theory of planned behavior model, our objective was to determine how personal background factors influence a patient's inclination to be screened for stomach cancer. The study population was derived from the 2006 Korean National Cancer Screening Survey, which was done to investigate the participation of the general population in cancer screening. In total, 1,509 Koreans who were 40 to 70 years old participated in this study. Path analysis was used to test a conceptual model in which (a) factors considered as precursors to be screened (components in theory of planned behavior model) directly predicted the intention to be screened and (b) personal background factors, including sociodemographic factors, previous screening experience, economic status, and perceived risk, indirectly influenced the intention to be screened through their effects on cognitive components such as attitude and subjective norm in the theory of planned behavior model. Most of the personal background factors did not directly influence intention but instead influenced cognitive elements in the theory of planned behavior model. Attitude and perceived behavioral control were well correlated with a patient's intention, regardless of the screening cost. (Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2008;

“…Research attempts to expand the TPB include external variables such as affect (Montano, Thompson, Taylor, & Mahloch, 1997), self-efficacy beliefs (Tolma, Reininger, Ureda, & Evans, 2006), and cultural factors, namely fatalism (Terán et al, 2007) and religiosity (Bowie et al, 2003). However, these factors may either be considered redundant (i.e., items that measure affect semantically resemble items that measure attitudes, and items that measure perceived control semantically resemble items that measure self-efficacy beliefs respectively), or non applicable to our study because in western populations mammography screening does not seem to be that much affected by cultural factors as in other populations (Austin et al, 2002;Soskolne, Marie, & Manor, 2007).…”

The present study examined the associations between optimism, personal characteristics and theory of planned behavior (TPB) components for mammography screening. Most of the results were in line with TPB which proposed that intention would be the most proximal determinant of a behavior and the effects of other factors including attitudes and perceived behavioral control on behavior would be mediated through intention. However, a number of demographic and health-related factors, including age and a previous benign breast disease emerged as independent factors associated with mammography screening, providing evidence that personal factors should be taken into account in future applications of the TPB when examining mammography screening behavior.

“…This has been demonstrated in a limited number of studies, namely, when evaluating women's intentions to receive a mammogram 3 , seat belt use among college students 4 , and marijuana use among adolescents. 5 This evidence has led Fishbein and Ajzen 1 to note that despite the intuitive appeal of having a value-expectancy measurement model, motivation to comply appears to add little to no value towards predicting injunctive norms.…”

Do injunctive and descriptive normative beliefs need a value-laden multiplier in value expectancy models? A Case Series Across Multiple Health Behaviors AbstractThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the benefit of transforming expectancy-based determinants of injunctive and descriptive norms with a value-laden construct across a case series of health behaviors. This case series draws upon three cases (sugar-sweetened beverages, physical activity, and sleep), each evaluating generalized injunctive (ΣIN) and descriptive norms (ΣDN), with corresponding value-expectancy based determinants: injunctive normative belief strength (inbi) and motivation to comply (mtci), and descriptive normative belief strength (dnbi) and identification with referents (iwri). Each belief-based measure (inbi/ dnbi) and product between belief-based measure and value-laden measure (inbi x mtci/dnbi x iwri) was correlated to its corresponding generalized scale (ΣIN/ΣDN), and the associations were compared using Steiger's test for comparing two dependent correlations with one variable in common. Across three case series, generalized injunctive norms (ΣIN) was correlated to 12 referents using a value-expectancy model (inbi x mtci) and expectancy-only model (inbi), and generalized descriptive norms was correlated to 15 referents using the same approach (inbi x iwri vs. dnbi). Using Steiger's test, it was found that the expectancyonly model was significantly better than the value-expectancy model for injunctive norms, but results were mixed for descriptive norms. Results from this study suggest that value-laden constructs only add error when evaluating determinants of injunctive norms, and researchers should consider re-scaling or finding alternative means of measuring mtci. Results pertaining to descriptive norms were mixed, and a better consensus on best methods for operationalizing the construct is warranted.
