the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). This theory pertains to the concepts of behaviors that people can assert control over e.g. exercise routine. The key component of this model is behavioral intentions and the person’s evaluation of the possibility of risk or benefit to be the outcome of the behavior. The TPB consists of six major constructs that formulate a person’s control over his or her behavior. These six major constructs are the following:
(a) Attitudes-person’s favorable or unfavorable evaluation of the behavior;
(b) Behavioral intention- the motivational factors that influence the behavior;
(c) Subjective norms-the belief that the person will approve or disaaprove of the behavior;
(d) Social norms-refers to the customary codes …show more content…
Role playing helps to incorporate the three theories that are explored in this study and self-determination skills. Students enjoy observing their peers and learning from their actions as to positive ways to advocate for themselves. Adolescents, in particular value their peers’ opinions, gather information from watching their peers and brainstorming with each other as to different ways to approach the same situation. Another helpful way to portray self-determination strategies and setting short and long term goals that are consistent with the student’s interest is to have guest …show more content…
They utilized three assessment tools in their study because of the face validity of the items. The AIR Self-Determination Scale-Student Form, Parent Form, and Educator Form (AIR; Levin & Rotheram-Fuller, 2011) is used to measure abilities, knowledge, and perceptions pertaining to self-determination. According to Levin and Rotheram-Fuller, the AIR is selected because of high item consistencies reliabilities during split-half tests (0.91 to 0.98) and test-retest reliability (0.74). The Tennessee Self-Concept Scale: Second Edition (TSCS:2; Fitts & Warren, 1996) is used to allow the participants the opportunity to complete a self-report measure covering perceptions, attitudes, and beliefs of the participant. Internal-consistency reliabilities for the TSCS:2 were calculated using Cronbach’s alpha which ranged from a low of 0.75 for moral and social self-concepts to a high of 0.87 for identity and behavior. The 13-18 and 19-90 age groups which utilized the Adult Form and obtained total self-concept scores of 0.93 and 0.95 respectively. The participants’ responses on the Adult Form achieved total self-concepts score of 0.82. The third assessment used in this study was the Behavior Assessment System for Children-Second Edition: Student Self Report of Personality (BASC-2: SRP) Adolescent Form (Reynolds & Kamphaus, 2004). It is a self-report
