Exam 5: Theory of Reasoned Action, Theory of Planned Behavior, and the Integrated Behavior Model

In the application of the Theory of Reasoned Action or the Theory of Planned Behavior, both indirect and direct measures of the constructs should be calculated.

The Theory of Reasoned Action and the Theory of Planned behavior both posit that demographic and environmental characteristics independently contribute to behaviors.

The Theory of Reasoned Action is based on the premise that the most important determinant of behavior is behavioral intention.

The Integrated Behavioral Model posits that each of the following components affect behavior EXCEPT:

You plan to conduct an intervention to promote healthy eating and physical activity with pre-diabetic women in your community. Write an essay describing the steps you will take to implement the intervention using the Integrated Behavioral Model.

The Theory of Planned Behavior postulates that perceived control:

Subjective norm is a construct that:

When working with homogenous populations, the elicitation phase for the Theories of Reasoned Action, Planned Behavior, and Integrated Behavioral Model can be skipped to save time.

Which statement about the Integrated Behavioral Model is FALSE?

Which construct is included in the Theory of Planned Behavior but not the Theory of Reasoned Action?

When developing the Theory of Reasoned Action, Fishbein determined that attitude toward an object and attitude toward a behavior with respect to that object were equally likely to predict behavior.

When using the Theory of Reasoned Action or Theory of Planned Behavior, the elicitation phase:

The Theory of Planned behavior is more useful than the Theory of Reasoned action for predicting behaviors under which volitional control is reduced.

The Theory of Reasoned Action and Theory of Planned Behavior:

Normative beliefs refer to whether important referent individuals approve or disapprove of performing the behavior.

The influence of a smoker's partner in a smoking cessation intervention would likely be considered which construct of the Theory of Reasoned Action?

Theory of Planned Behavior constructs are measured scales ranging from 0-10.

Compare and contrast the Theory of Reasoned Action and the Theory of Planned Behavior, highlighting similarities and differences in constructs. What are the strengths and limitations of each. How they differ in respect to volitional control?

According to the Integrated Behavioral Model, the most important determinant of health is motivation or intention to perform behavior.

Direct measures of the Theory of Reasoned Action and Theory of Planned Behavior should be:
