The Theory of Planned Behavior and Reasoned action. The Theory of Planned Behavior: This theory is an extension of the theory of Reasoned Action.
E N D
The Theory of Planned Behavior and Reasoned action • The Theory of Planned Behavior: • This theory is an extension of the theory of Reasoned Action. • IceckAjzen ( professor of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts) added this extension followed by some empirical research when him and his team realized that T.R.A cannot predict the final behavior. • The Theory of Reasoned Action (T.R.A): • This theory was suggested by Martin Fishbein & IcekAjzen in 1975. • The purpose of this theory was to evaluate human behavior . • This theory has been used in many different fields like Marketing, Health, Social and, etc.

Theory of planned behavior an extension of theory of Reasoned action • Perceived Behavioral control: Covers volitional behaviors to predict behavioral intention and actual behavior.(Wikipedia) • Expectation: One’s experience in failing repeatedly, has an affect on his/her future behavioral reactions( the feeling of that fail becomes a precondition). • Self-efficacy helps to understand the relationship between beliefs, attitudes, intentions, and behavior. SET has been used broadly in health-related fields. • IcekAjzen extended the Theory of Reasoned Action in 1985. • What was added to TRA is: Perceived Behavioral Control(PBC) • PBC has its roots in Self Efficacy Control(SET) introduced by Bandura in 1977. • Self-efficacy(SET) and Outcome-expectancy are the two branches of expectations (Bandura 1986). • Outcome-expectancy is when a person estimates the result of his/her behavior.
Definitions • Normative belief: that’s how others make a person feel with their reaction for a particular behavior. • Subjective norm : when others are expecting he/ she to act or don’tact in certain way. • Behavioral belief: the belief of a person that expecting certain result of a given behavior. • Attitude toward behavior: it is the degree of evaluation of an act being positive or negative.
Definitions • Behavioral intension :a sign that shows the person is ready to perform a particular behavior and this happens right before the performance. • Behavior : a noticeable reaction of someone toward something in a given circumstances. • Perceived behavioral control : that’s when the person think it’s easy or not for him/her to perform a behavior. • Controlbeliefs : person beliefs that other factors are there to make it easier or not to perform a behavior.
Summary • Human beliefs initiates an attitude toward the behavior which is influenced by societies’ beliefs. These negative or positive beliefs create pressure on human and he/she becomes conditioned by facing these beliefs. • In result, when person has intention to perform a behavior these beliefs as perceived, control indirectly the intention and control the behavior.
Strength and limitation • TPB & TRA both are agree that “social norm” has an important impact on “social behavior”. • Limitation: • Some health-related research has shown that “personal emotion” are more effective that “social norm” and this wouldn’t help to predict the behavior. • Theory of planned behavior can predict deliberate behavior, TRA can not. • “Predict behavioral control” is a concept that helps to understand, behavior is not 100% voluntary and is related to behavioral intention. • Empirical evidence in health related research has shown that TPB helped more than TRA to predict intention.
