Evidence that perceived behavioural control is a multidimensional construct: Perceived control and perceived difficulty

British Journal of Social Psychology, 2002
Four studies were performed to test whether Ajzen's (1988, 1991) concept of perceived behavioural control is really an amalgamation of two variables, which we term ‘perceived control’ and ‘perceived difficulty’. Perceived control refers to the extent to which people consider the performance of a behaviour to be under their voluntary control.

Blood donation and Ajzen's theory of planned behaviour: An examination of perceived behavioural control

British Journal of Social Psychology, 1995
In spite of the success achieved by the theory of reasoned action, researchers continue to suggest that new components should be added to the original model. Indeed, Ajzen has himself acknowledged that some behaviours may be subject to control problems and thus proposed the theory of planned behaviour to handle behaviours of this kind.
