“…The theory of planned behavior (TPB) proposed by Ajzen (1980) provides a plausible explanation 51. This theory has been widely used to explain a variety of maladaptive habits and related interventions 52–54. TPB states that an individual’s behaviors are closely associated with behavioral intention and three predictors (attitude, perceived behavioral control, and subjective norm).…”

PurposeThe aims of this study were to examine (a) the effects of parental phubbing on teenagers’ mobile phone dependency and (b) the mediating roles of subjective norm and dependent intention of underlying this relationship.MethodsWe recruited 605 middle school students in Beijing, China and they completed the parental phubbing behaviors, subjective norm, dependency intention, and mobile phone dependency behavior questionnaires.ResultsThe results of the structure equation modeling revealed that parental phubbing behaviors significantly increased teenager’s mobile phone dependency behaviors in two indirect ways. First, parental phubbing reinforced teenagers’ mobile phone dependency intention, which in turn increased the likelihood of mobile phone dependency. Second, parental phubbing enhanced the tendency of parental mobile phone dependence norm perceived by teenagers, and thus reinforced their mobile phone dependency intention, ultimately increasing mobile phone dependency.ConclusionWe concluded that parental phubbing is a significant indicator of teenager mobile phone dependency and that mobile phone dependency intention plays a mediation role between them. In addition, the perceived parental mobile phone dependency norm played a mediation role between parental phubbing and mobile phone dependency intention and indirectly influenced the level of mobile phone dependency behaviors through the mediation effect of mobile phone dependency intention.

“…Health education requires an understanding of the health behaviors and associated factors aimed at changing current behaviors, which highlights the role of theories in the research on health behaviors (Bashirian et al 2012). The theory of planned behavior (TPB), developed by Ajzen and Fishbein in 1985 (Ajzen 1985), has been used in various studies on healthy behaviors education (Tolma et al 2006), family planning (Sheeran and Taylor 1999), physical activity (Armitage 2005), cancers (Oluka et al 2017), and sexual behaviors education (Chavoshian et al 2015). The findings of these studies for healthy behaviors education, sexual behaviors education, and family planning have been promising.…”

This randomized controlled trial (RCT) with pretest-posttest design addressed the effect of a theory of planned behavior (TPB) based educational intervention on divorce petition withdrawal. The study population consisted of 140 couples applying for divorce in a judiciary counseling center in Yazd, Iran. Participants were assigned to two groups with 70 individuals in each. The intervention included four educational sessions in which TPB based contents were presented. The data were analyzed by using chi-squared test and covariance analysis. There was no significant difference in demographic characteristics between the two groups. The mean behavioral intention scores after the intervention decreased among the intervention group whereas no significant changes were detected among the control group. Posttest differences were significant.19.3% of the covariance in posttest scores was explained by the educational intervention (p < 0.01). Subjective norms and attitude toward divorce decreased only among the intervention group whereas perceived behavioral control scores did not change among both groups. However, no significant difference at the posttest was observed in mean attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control scores between the two groups. Education can affect the intention of couples toward divorce petition. More appropriate educational protocols can be developed for couples in counseling centers by planning for and making necessary coordination with the judiciary; TPB can provide more opportunities for divorce applicants to help them make more informed decisions.
