The plastic bag diet campaign has been carried out by many parties including government agencies, but the campaign is feared to only reach the cognitive stage, not a meaningful change in attitude. Many campaigns on the problem of plastic waste have been carried out from NGOs, the private sector, and the government, but what is wrong so as to the problem of plastic waste continues to occur? Why does the problem of plastic waste still stop at the campaign without a comprehensive behavior implementation of the community? The research method was a survey using quota sampling and descriptive. The population people in Balikpapan, Jakarta and Surabaya. The campaign to limit plastic bags can be successful if there is a synergy of the regulators; the government and NGOs, the private sector such as retailers, and the community. The related parties are expected to design a campaign in accordance with the social marketing model. Moreover, the related parties must also conduct formative research of the target behavior: the community about plastic waste and the extent to which the related parties must endeavor so that it can be known what audience benefits are most appropriate in formulating a campaign. In the implementation of social marketing, related parties have to clearly formulate the target behavior that exists so that people are not confused and have one voice. In addition, policies must also be upheld to support and maintain the results of social marketing to be sustainable. Moreover, educational and outreach programs that can change behavior about the environment will also help future generations to reduce pollution of plastic waste.

The spirit of learning in children during COVID-19 is a challenge that is present for teachers and parents.

The author uses descriptive methods in analyzing this paper. The results of this paper are that the three techniques (fading, economic tokens, and shaping) are considered effective in shaping the target behavior, that is, children's enthusiasm for learning during the pandemic.

AbstractOur main purpose was to explore hypotheses derived from the Identification of Action Theory in a particular situation that is, a dissonant situation. Thus, we varied the identification (low versus high-level) of a problematic behavior (to stop speaking for 24 hours) in the forced compliance paradigm. Two modes of dissonance reduction were presented: cognitive rationalization (classical attitude-change) and behavioral rationalization (target behavior: to stop speaking for 48 hours). As predicted, the results showed that high-level identity of action leads to cognitive rationalization whereas low-level identity leads to behavioural rationalization. Thus, participants identifying the problematic behavior at a low-level were more inclined to accept the target behavior, compared with participants identifying their problematic behavior at a higher-level. These results are of particular interest for understanding the extent to which the understanding of the discrepant act interferes with the cognitive processes of dissonance reduction.

Two experiments investigated the effect of target variables upon the behavior of aggressor rats during shock-induced aggression. The first experiment indicated that highly aggressive rat pairs displayed a brief decrement in fighting after they were trained to respond to shock in a manner incompatible with aggression. The incompatible response involved both rats being down on all four paws, remaining relatively immobile, and facing into opposite corners. Exp. 2 was designed to assess whether the transient nature of the cornering in Exp. 1 was due to rapid extinction of the trained response under those stimulus conditions or whether the fighting behavior of the conspecifics disrupted the cornering. These data, combined with those of Exp. 1, indicated that cornering declined most slowly in the absence of a target, more rapidly in the presence of a target also cornering, and most rapidly in the presence of a target not cornering but confined to the opposite corner. The results suggested that the specific behavior of the target disrupted the trained response and provoked attack.

The Theory of Planned Behavior is widely used to predict human behaviors in many disciplines. According to the Theory of Planned Behavior, Attitude towards the target behavior, Subjective Norms about engaging in the behavior and Perceived Behavior Control influence intention. In addition, an individual's display of a certain behavior is determined by his or her intent to perform that behavior. This chapter describes the origin and history of the Theory of Planned Behavior, its purpose, its limitations and its applications in order to examine acceptance, adoption, use, and continuance of use of Information Systems and services.
