“…Finally, the theory of planned behavior was only extended to include planning as an additional construct. Other constructs have been shown to be important predictors of parent-for-child health behaviors such as role construction, moral norms, anticipated affect, and action control Hamilton, Kirkpatrick, Rebar, White, & Hagger, 2017;Hamilton, Peden, Smith, & Hagger, RUNNING HEAD: Theory of Planned Behavior for Parent-for-Child Behaviors 25 2019; Schmidt & Hamilton, 2017). Furthermore, the theory does not provide a clear account for health behaviors that have a social or dyadic component (Scholz, Berli, Lüscher, & Knoll, 2020), nor does it explicitly account for effects of socio-demographic variables such as education, income, or other indices of socio-economic status (Schüz, 2017).…”

Objective: To conduct a meta-analysis of studies examining the determinants of behaviors performed by parents to promote the health of their child, termed parent-for-child health behaviors, based on an extended theory of planned behavior. Specifically, the study aimed to meta-analyze correlations among theory of planned behavior constructs, planning, and past behavior, and use them to test theory predictions and effects of salient moderators. Methods: A systematic search identified 46 studies that provided correlations between at least one theory construct and intention or behavior for parent-forchild behaviors. Theory predictions were tested using meta-analytic structural equation modeling. Studies were also coded for candidate moderators of model effects: child age, sample type, time lag between measures of theory constructs and parent-for-child health behavior, study quality, and behavior type, and estimated the proposed model at each level of the moderator. Results: Results supported theory predictions with attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control predicting parent-for-child health behavior participation mediated by intention. Perceived behavioral control and planning also directly predicted behavior, and planning partially mediated effects of intention on behavior. Model effects held when controlling for past behavior, supporting the sufficiency of the theory in this behavioral domain. Few moderator effects were found on relations between theory constructs. Conclusions: Findings identified the social cognition determinants of parent-for-child health behaviors, and highlight the potential processes by which they relate to behavior. The current model signposts potentially modifiable targets for behavioral interventions aimed at fostering parental participation in behaviors that promote the health of their children.

Previous studies focusing on the effects of the social aspects of community have often used the Sense of Community Index (SCI), despite other research showing that it is not a good‐fit measure for its expected dimensions. Using a sample of students from Brigham Young University, we performed confirmatory factor analysis of the SCI to assess 1‐factor, 4‐factor, 1‐factor revised, 3‐factor revised, 1‐factor revised, 4‐factor revised, and 1‐factor revised models. Our study resulted in mixed findings: models were neither a poor‐fit nor a good fit. Although the 4‐factor revised model was the best fit, it did not measure the intended dimensions well. Our analysis indicates that future research investigating sense of community should use measures other than the SCI.
