Predicting behaviour from perceived behavioural control: Tests of the accuracy assumption of the theory of planned behaviour

British Journal of Social Psychology, 2003
The theory of planned behaviour assumes that the accuracy of perceived behavioural control (PBC) determines the strength of the PBC‐behaviour relationship. However, this assumption has never been formally tested. The present research developed and validated a proxy measure of actual control (PMAC) in order to test the assumption.

Distinguishing among perceived control, perceived difficulty, and self‐efficacy as determinants of intentions and behaviours

British Journal of Social Psychology, 2008
Perceptions of control hold a dominant position in social cognitive theories yet there is a lack of conceptual and empirical clarity regarding what kind of control is most associated with particular behaviours. Three prominent types of control are perceived control (PC), perceived difficulty (PD), and perceived confidence or self‐efficacy (SE) for ...

The theory of planned behaviour: Assessment of predictive validity and 'perceived control

British Journal of Social Psychology, 1999
The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) has received considerable attention in the literature. However, there have been few attempts to assess the proposed causal links between beliefs, attitudes, intentions and behaviour. The present study was designed to assess the predictive validity and causal ordering of TPB constructs over a 3‐month period ...

Some tests of the distinction between attitude and perceived behavioural control

British Journal of Social Psychology, 1998
Although perceived behavioural control has recently become a popular variable for use in predicting behaviour or intention to behave, it is far from clear that this variable is theoretically distinguishable from attitude. Consequently, we performed some tests of the distinction between attitude and perceived behavioural control.

Predicting Automaticity in Exercise Behaviour: The Role of Perceived Behavioural Control, Affect, Intention, Action Planning, and Behaviour

International Journal of Behavioral Medicine, 2013
Habit formation has been proposed as a way to maintain behaviour over time.Recent evidence suggests that constructs additional to repeated performance may predict physical automaticity, but no research has yet explored possible direct impacts of intention, planning, affect, and perceived behavioural control (PBC) on automaticity.In a prospective study ...

Perceived Parental Rearing Behaviour and Psychopathology in Epileptic Patients: A Controlled Study

Psychopathology, 2010
Memories of parental rearing behaviour were assessed by the EMBU in 61 epileptics and 151 healthy controls. The occurrence of the first crisis during the childhood was an inclusion criterion for patients. Epileptics, as compared with controls, rated their fathers and mothers as less stimulating, their fathers as less performance oriented and ...

Perceived control, causality, expectations and help-seeking behaviour

Counselling Psychology Quarterly, 1991
Abstract Undergraduates recruited from an introductory psychology course who were currently not seeking professional help (n=81) were compared with a comparable sample seeking professional help at a university psychological services centre (n=53).

The nature and components of perceived behavioural control as an element of theory of planned behaviour

Behaviour & Information Technology, 2011
Ajzen 1991. The theory of planned behaviour. Organizational Behaviour and Human Decision Processes, 50 2, 179–211 suggested three constructs that determine the user's intention: attitude, subject norms and perceived behavioural control PBC. Recently, some psychologists have argued that PBC is poorly understood.

Theory of planned behaviour and road violations: The moderating influence of perceived behavioural control

Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 2013
Abstract Understanding the motivation behind unsafe driving practices is of paramount importance with a view to preventing road violations and crashes. Although the vast majority of previous studies have reported the predictive utility of the theory of planned behaviour (TPB), these studies have been conducted within an additive framework.

Safety Science, 2015
