This quantitative investigation aims to test the model of responsible consumption behavior (RCB). The specific purpose is to examine the relationship of pro-environmental behavior, attitudes, norms, intention, and awareness using the theory of planned behavior as an underlying theoretical framework. A multistage sampling technique was used to select people (n = 665). Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire from sample respondents. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM)–partial least square (PLS). The findings revealed that attitudes, norms, and awareness all have a role in predicting the intention to engage in post-consumer plastic packaging activity. This finding supports the theory of planned behavior, and it can be extended to explain environmental behavior by adding a reasonable variable.

Despite the usefulness of the theory of planned behavior in predicting intention and behavior in different domains, the sufficiency of its use in predicting and determining intention has been debated by many scholars. This paper extended the theory of planned behavior by including social support as a possible determinant of intention in the entrepreneurship domain while looking at one of the largest universities in Nigeria. Data were collected from 432 final year students of Ahmadu Bello University in Zaria using a simple random sampling technique. Structural equation modeling was adopted using partial least square technique for data analysis. Perceived social support, attitude towards entrepreneurship, and perceived behavioral control all were found to have a significant effect on entrepreneurial intention, while subjective norms had an insignificant effect. The study found perceived social support to be an important social influence factor in the theory of planned behavior because of its influence on entrepreneurial intention. Hence, perceived social support is recommended to be included as a major construct in the theory of planned behavior.

Online web technologies are adopted to improve students' collaborative work. However, the factors that affect students' engagement in online collaboration (e-collaboration) have not been understood in previous studies. This research aimed to examine the extent to which students' intentions to e-collaborate can be explained by the theory of planned behavior. A sample of secondary and tertiary students was used (N = 175). The results from the partial least square approach to structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) indicated that the path coefficients of the relationships partially reinforced the a priori construction of the hypothesized model. In brief, attitudes toward e-collaboration and subjective norms were positively and significantly related to e-collaborative intentions, while perceived behavioral control indirectly predicted e-collaborative intentions via perceived e-collaborative performance. Research and practical implications have been presented in the paper.

Rendahnya kesadaran wajib pajak orang pribadi dalam membayar pajak telah menjadi masalah utama negara berkembang dalam aspek pajak. Rendahnya kepatuhan wajib pajak orang pribadi dapat dilihat dan dikaji dari sisi psikologi wajib pajak (sikap, norma subjektif, kontrol perilaku yang dipersepsikan, niat, dan perilaku kepatuhan pajak). Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksplanatori, pengambilan sample dalam penelitian ini menggunakan teknik non-probability sampling dengan kriteria wajib pajak orang pribadi yang terdaftar dan memiliki Nomor Pokok Wajib Pajak (NPWP) dan melaporkan Surat Pemberitahuan Pajak (SPT) di Kantor Pelayanan Pajak (KPP) di Provinsi DKI Jakarta. Adapun instrument penelitian dilakukan pretest pada tanggal 28-29 Mei 2018 (2 Hari). Hasil kuesioner yang sudah valid dan reliabel kemudian dilakukan penyebaran ulang untuk keperluan analisa statistik dalam penelitian ini, kuesioner disebarkan pada tanggal 28 Mei – 05 Juli 2018 (39 Hari). Jumlah sampel yang diolah sebanyak 170 tanggapan wajib pajak, dan data diolah dengan metode Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) berbasis Partial Least Square (PLS) dengan bantuan program SmartPLS 3.0. Hasil pengujian hipotesis menunjukkan bahwa sikap dan kontrol perilaku yang dipersepsikan berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap niat berperilaku patuh terhadap pajak, sedangkan norma subjektif berpengaruh positif namun tidak signifikan terhadap niat berperilaku patuh terhadap pajak. Hasil penelitian mengungkapkan kesesuaian dengan Teori Perilaku Terencana (Theory of Planned Behavior) bahwa secara teoritis perilaku wajib pajak disebabkan oleh adanya niat untuk berprilaku patuh terhadap pajak yang direfleksikan oleh sikap, norma subjektif dan kontrol perilaku yang dipersepsikan oleh wajib pajak orang pribadi di Provinsi DKI Jakarta. The low awareness of individual taxpayers in paying taxes has become a major problem for developing countries in the tax aspect. The low compliance of individual taxpayers can be seen and assessed in terms of the taxpayer's psychology (attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral controls, intentions, and tax compliance behavior). This research is an explanatory research, taking samples in this study using non-probability sampling techniques with criteria for individual taxpayers who are registered and have a Taxpayer Identification Number (NPWP) and report the Tax Return (SPT) in the Tax Service Office (KPP) in DKI Jakarta Province. The research instrument was pretested on 28-29 May 2018 (2 Days). The results of a valid and reliable questionnaire were then re-distributed for the purposes of statistical analysis in this study, the questionnaire was distributed on 28 May - 05 July 2018 (39 Days). The number of samples processed was 170 taxpayer responses to the questionnaire distributed, and the data was processed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method based on Partial Least Square (PLS) with the help of the SmartPLS 3.0 program. The results of hypothesis testing show that attitude and perceived behavior control have a positive and significant effect on the intention to behave in compliance with taxes, while subjective norms have a positive but not significant effect on the intention to behave in compliance with taxes. The results of the study reveal conformity with the Theory of Planned Behavior that theoretically taxpayer behavior is caused by the intention to behave obediently to taxes which is reflected by attitudes, subjective norms and behavioral controls perceived by individual taxpayers in DKI Jakarta Province.

Behavioral self-control in managing personal finances is a behavior to be careful in using the money they had, which was not spontaneous purchases or otherwise delay the purchase to do first consideration so that the money can be used properly so as to avoid consumer behavior. This study aimed to test the theory of planned behavior and conscientiousness on the behavior of self-control in managing personal finances, where there are seven hypotheses to be tested. The sample in this study is still STIKes Merangin Lecturer. Data obtained through questionnaires and to test the proposed models and hypotheses used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based variance component or famous with Partial Least Square (PLS). The results showed thatof thetheory of planned behavior only influence behavioral intentions ofdoingself-controlin managingpersonal financesto thebehaviorof self-controlin managing personal finances that have asignificant influence. While othersdo nothave asignificant effect.

The COVID-19 pandemic and climate change issues present evident interdependencies which justify the spread of connected beliefs. We examine possible changes in individuals’ pro-environmental behavior in light of this pandemic, using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework. A questionnaire survey was submitted to the same sample of individuals, before and during the pandemic. Our evidence, based on Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), shows that the COVID-19 pandemic has not led to a weakening in TPB construct relationships, or in related Pro-Environmental Behavior (PEB). Conversely, through our Partial Least Squares-Multi-Group Analysis (PLS-MGA), we show that individuals with greater awareness of interdependencies between the COVID-19 and climate change exhibit both higher Intention and reinforced Pro-Environmental Behaviors. This finding reveals interesting policy implications in terms of innovative behavioral drivers that should be employed to steer public support towards climate-oriented initiatives.
