Abstract:

Affect is a term used to embrace the experience of emotions and feelings often contrasted, yet not entirely distinct from, conative and cognitive experience. Prominent social cognition models propose that behaviour is as a result of a deliberative process (Theory of Planned Behaviour, Ajzen, 1991; Health Belief Model, Becker, 1974). The extent to which affect, a rich and compelling source of information, is used in guiding cognitive processing or indeed having direct effects on behaviour, when making decisions of health and risk could be better understood. There is a wealth of correlational ev

Abstract:

This thesis has explored a behavioural perspective on social marketing involving volunteering. Research on volunteering is important because it addresses people from whom charitable organisations obtain help (the time donors). The focus of this study was to investigate the extent to which young volunteers perform voluntary service in the project to which they have committed themselves and for the full project period of the activities. The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) was used as the core theoretical framework of this study. Four additional variables which have been used in TPB-based inves

Abstract:

Despite fruit and vegetable consumption’s substantial health benefits for physical health and the reduction of disease risk (World Health Organisation, 2002), many young adults fail to consume recommended quantities of fruit and vegetables (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 1997). This design and evaluation of an intervention intended to increase fruit and vegetable consumption in Australian young adults is reported in the present thesis. The intervention was guided by the theory of planned behaviour (Ajzen, 1991; Fishbein & Ajzen, 2010) and focused on increasing fruit and vegetable consumption

Abstract:

It is generally accepted that the rate at which any individuals presently save falls substantively short of that which will enable them to achieve their lifestyle aspirations in retirement. This, combined with the social-support funding demands of an ageing population makes the subject of retirement savings one of crucial importance to Australia and to most countries worldwide. An obvious approach to improving the quality of life in retirement and to alleviating the forecast social-support burden is to induce people to save in a more effective manner. This point is not lost on the Australian g

The alms of the current study were, firstly, to examme factors predicting nurses' perception of risk of HIV contagion at work; and secondly to investigate nurses' compliance with universal precautions, and the reasons for their compliance and noncompliance. The research was carried out in three phases. Phase I of the research used the Yates and Stone (1992) model of risk as a theoretical framework with which to examine perceived risk and also investigated reasons for non-compliance. The results suggested that perceived risk was related to fear of contagion and knowledge of non-transmission mod

Abstract:

Regular exercise is an important component of a healthy lifestyle; however, the majority of the UK population does not adhere to recommended weekly exercise. Exercise peaks in the 16-24 age group and declines with age. Life transitions have been found to negatively impact health behaviours such as exercise. The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) was employed to examine the effects of a life transition (graduating university) on exercise intentions and behaviour. The TPB states that the most proximal determinant of behaviour is intention. Intention, in turn, is determined by attitude, subjective

Abstract:

Despite many years of promotion of safe sex practices, men who have sex with men continue to be vastly over-represented in new HIV diagnoses and infection rates continue (Sullivan et al., 2009). This has been attributed to a reduction in condom use associated with the reduced disease burden and reduced infectivity resulting from antiretroviral therapy uptake. Theories of health behaviour may assist in understanding the processes involved in condom use among MSM. The aims of this study are to test the utility of the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB; Ajzen, 1991) in explaining condom use among M

Background: A significant proportion of vehicle accidents in the UK are caused by drivers falling asleep at the wheel and these accidents often occur at high speeds and result in fatalities (Home & Reyner, 1995b). Research has shown that driving after 15 or more hours of wakefulness increases the risk of being involved in a sleep-related vehicle accident (Stutts et al., 2003). Further, young and elderly adults have been found to have more sleep-related accidents between midnight and 6am and between 3pm and 6pm, respectively (Summala & Mikkola, 1994).

Since the 1980's environmentalism has developed into a major worldwide movement with concern for the environment having grown exponentially over the last two decades.

Organisations are increasingly becoming aware of employees' internet use for nonwork- related activities, a phenomenon known as cyber-loafing. This poses a problem for organisations as both employee and organisational productivity are negatively impacted. Cyber-loafing is a fairly nascent concept within the Counterproductive Work Behaviour (CWB) literature, given the recent rise in technological advancements. Employees who engage in cyber-loafing divert their energy and attention away from work for prolonged periods of time, which is classified as a withdrawal behaviour under the CWB typology.

Abstract:

Humans, through their actions, are both the victims and the cause of many environmental problems. The importance of attaining a sustainable future through behavioural rather than technical solutions to the environment crises is widely recognised. The aim of this study was to test multi-attribute models in the context of recycling behaviour. The Cotswold District Council facilitated this by providing the opportunity to monitor recycling behaviour, objectively and unobtrusively, without signaling in any way a connection to the prior intention measurement phase. The research process was multiface

Abstract:

The aim of the present study was to examine both the individual and organizational level factors contributing to the safety related behaviours of nurses. Effects of the individual level factors on safety behaviour of nurses were analyzed within the theoretical framework of Ajzen&rsquo<br>s (1991) Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) and effects of the organizational level factors were analyzed through safety climate perceptions of the nurses. Data were collected from nurses (N=274) of two different private hospitals located in Ankara and their first line supervisors (N=34).Participants filled out

Abstract:

Although several sustainability implementation frameworks have been proposed, researchers have not yet proposed theories or models to help organisations speed up the rate of sustainability diffusion and narrow the gap between what is known and what is put into use. This study sought to fill this gap by proposing a sustainability diffusion model. The model was developed from an exhaustive review of the corresponding literature. It uses Rogers' (1962) diffusion of innovations theory and Ajzen's (1991) theory of planned behaviour as a theoretical foundation. The model was tested and its structura

Abstract:

This research investigated individual and situational factors that influence driver compliance with the school zones speed limit in Australia and Malaysia. Despite all the countermeasures implemented in these two countries, driver compliance with the speed limit in school zones is still poor. The findings of the research provided support for the application of the Theory of Planned Behaviour to understand and therefore influence drivers' intention to comply with the school zones speed limit in both Australia and Malaysia. The research also revealed that mindfulness, a construct rarely used

Abstract:

Fly-in-fly-out (FIFO) work has become a primary way of getting work done in the Australian resources sector. Research has shown that FIFO workers experience a disproportionately high rate of mental health problems compared to the general population. Psychological burnout is widely reported in the healthcare industry, but less thoroughly investigated in FIFO workers. Despite the widespread mental health problems, support services are often under-utilised. This study utilised the well-established Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) Framework to explore its utility for examining help-seeking behavi
