“…It allows the prediction of behaviors. As behavior intention is directly connected to the behavior so PBC may also be predicted for the behavior (Conner & McMillian, 1999;Courneya, Bobick, & Schinke, 1999;Godin, Maticka-Tyndale, Adrien, Manson-Singer, Williams, & Cappon, 1996;Netemeyer, Burton, & Johnston, 1991;Sheeran & Orbell, 2000). Kang, Hahn, Fortin, Hyun, and Eom (2006) explained perceived behavior control as, behavior is affected by certain factors, normative elements, and perceived control.…”

The purpose of this paper is to review the conceptualization of the adaptation of Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) with religious orientation in small and medium enterprises (SMEs). The underlying assumption for TPB implication in SMEs is that employee's behavioral intention at work may be modified via TPB which shall improve the employee competitiveness, which in turn increases the organizational success factors in the industry. The proposed conceptual framework is based on well-known analytical framework for TPB developed by Ajzen, (1991). Literature suggested that religion engenders the shape of behaviour, which is strongly followed by people. Based upon conceptual and empirical evidences framework and propositions are developed to test the adaptation of TPB and religious orientation in SME. The proposed framework provides a basis for developing an empirical model to advance the TBP with religious orientation in SME which further can be test across the SME sectors and results from different geographical and cultural settings may also be explore. This research contributes to existing knowledge by extension of TPB in SMEs operating in Pakistan, which would result in the improvement of employee's behavior. This study could be of practical value for SMEs owner/ managers, who want to maximize the employee behavior through effective adaptation of TBP with religious orientation that support their organization.

“…One of the limitations of TPB is that factors like demographic variables are not being emphasized in TPB studies (Armitage and Christian, 2003). Indeed, Courneya, Bobick and Schinke (1999) argued that external factors like demographic variables are often neglected in the health domain. Specifically, very few studies have provided demographically related determinants of exercise behavior.…”

Most research on exercise is dominated in the West and is seldom featured in the marketing literature. Efforts in examining the demographic differences with respect to social cognitive factors contained in the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) have been largely neglected. This paper aims to examine the relationship between gender, age, education level and the TPB sub-components of attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control. Conducted in Malaysia, this study employs a cross-sectional survey administered to a quota sample of 512 general adults. A fit measurement model with adequate evidence of convergent and discriminant validity is established using confirmatory factor analysis. Overall, the results show that gender, age, and education do exert a certain level of influence on the social cognitive factors and the subjects' exercise behavior. The application of socio-cognitive approach to examine the exercise behavior yielded contributions in terms of theory, methodology, and practice.

“…Behavioural intention refers to the amount of effort a person exerts to engage in behaviour. It captures the motivation factors necessary to perform a particular behaviour (Courneya, Bobick and Schinke 1999). That is, the more a person intends to carry out the intended behaviour, the more likely he or she would do so (Armitage and Conner 1999).…”
