“…Although changes in questionnaire responses are far from a finished product in terms of reducing actual crash risk, it is a start. Therefore, the program was evaluated using questionnaires that included socio-cognitive variables from the TPB, which postulates a link between attitudes, intentions, and behavior and has been shown to explain intention to perform risky behaviors by young road users [69][70][71]. It is vital to address attitudes of higher secondary school students towards driving violations and to reduce engagement in future risky driving behaviors.…”

Road safety education has been recognized as an instrument for reducing road accidents. This study aims to evaluate the road safety education program "Traffic Weeks" among higher secondary school students (age 16-19) in Belgium. The program focuses on driving under influence (DUI) and traffic risks. This study investigates whether the program has an effect on socio-cognitive variables using a questionnaire based on the theory of planned behavior. During the pre-test, 445 students filled in the questionnaire, while 253 students filled in the questionnaire during the post-test. Of these, 175 questionnaires could be matched. The results indicate that the students already had quite a supportive view of road safety at pre-test, with female students showing a more supportive view of road safety than male students. The DUI workshop had a positive effect on most socio-cognitive variables (attitude, subjective norm-friends, and intention) of female students in general education, while the traffic risks workshop only affected perceived behavioral control of female students. In terms of appreciation, students had a significantly higher appreciation of the DUI workshop compared to the traffic risks workshop. During the focus groups, students gave recommendations to improve the program.

“…Past research states that attitude exists in two levels which are explicit level and implicit level that effect individual's behavior [33]. Explicit level is considered as a level that can still be controlled while implicit level is the level that cannot be controlled [34]. In this study, attitude is related to 429 the social network community's behavior on using social network sites.…”

<p>Social capital refers to the resources available in personal and business networks. In developing a culture that values and practices social capital, social factors are considered one of the main precursors. With the proliferation of social commerce and the maturing of social media, social capital can be acquired and further developed for productive benefits, particularly for energy sectors in Malaysia. In this study, an integrated social commerce framework to promote social capital is presented and evaluated. The framework attempted to define the relationship between the Theories of Planned Behavior (TPB) and Social Support Theory (SST) alongside satisfaction and perceived value factors towards promoting social capital development in energy sectors. This research uses SPSS to analyse the data collected from employee in the energy sectors in Malaysia. Research reveals that social capital is present when there is trust and loyalty among the users and the significance of social capital is monumental for energy sectors’ productivity, efficiency and profitability. A survey is adapted and distributed to 20 respondents from the energy sector in Malaysia as a mean to study on the validity and reliability of the research factors. Results indicate that all proposed factors are significant in promoting social capital except one, which is the Perceived Behavioral Control (PBC) of the TPB.</p>

In the era of increasing healthcare cost, private medical and health insurance ownership substantially reduces out of pocket expenses for medical care. The main objective of this paper is to apply theory of planned behavior and (TPB) model and protection motivation theory (PMT) in predicting intention to purchase health and medical insurance among graduating students. A cross-sectional survey was performed for data collection. A total of 443 questionnaires were completed and valid for data analysis purposes. Findings showed that there was statistically significant correlation between attitudes and subjective norm with the intention to purchase medical insurance. Severity, vulnerability and self-efficacy correlate negatively, while response efficacy demonstrates a positive correlation. Despite of the negative perception over private insurance, it significantly reduces out of pocket expenditures for medical care. Thus, there is a need of a further study examining the factors affecting the demand and individual’s decision purchasing private insurance in Malaysia
