What's the overall model proposed by Ajzen? |
• attitude + subjective norms + perceived behavioural control = intention = behaviour |
|
What is meant by attitude? |
• this concerns how desirable a persons believe a behaviour is • beliefs about the consequences of performing the behaviour and an appraisal of the value the consequences (this is good) |
|
What is meant by subjective norms? |
• beliefs about what we think significant others feel is the right thing to do • beliefs about what other people are actually doing e. Believing that friends think smoking is acceptable |
|
What is meant by perceived behavioural control? |
• the extent to which a person believes they can perform the behaviour e.g have enough money to buy cigarettes • known as self efficacy • self efficacy reflects past experiences of trying to quite for example as well as obstacles |

What are basic summary of the theory of planned behaviour? |
• attitude (it will make me cool) + subjective norms (do my friends like smoking) + perceived behavioural control (I can afford to do this) = intention (why not try it) = behaviour (yolo let's do it) |
|
Slater et al. supports the role of attitude on planned behaviour, what did he find when trying to reduce cannabis? |
• by emphasising that a positive attitude towards cannabis is inconsistent with being independent and achieving aspirations • this was an effective way to reduce cannabis use |
|
How does Wilson and Kolander support the role of subjective norms in influencing addictions? |
• adolescents often have inaccurate subjective norms and believe that more people smoke than is true • therefore smoking can be recurs by providing accurate statistics about how few people actually smoke |
|
When Godin et al. surveyed and interviewed adults, they found support for perceived behavioural control being an important predictor of giving up smoking |
• anti smoking interventions should emphasise that giving up smoking is not easy as it requires a lot of power and effort |
|
Armitage et al. doesn't agree that the theory of planned behaviour doesn't take into account emotions |
• the model is too rational and doesn't take into account emotions which drive their behaviour in real life situations |
|
The model doesn't consider the role of intentions when drunk states Macdonald et al. |
• intentions are measured when sober, however intentions can change because of alcohol • it was found that being drunk led to intentions of having risky unprotected sex |
