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.

Collaborative Performance

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.

Responsible Consumption

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.

Global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, the capital of China’s Hubei Province, and has since spread globally, resulting in the ongoing 2019–2020 coronavirus pandemic that has an impact which would be disturbed the personal productivity in the community. The dependent variable which is threat of COVID-19 (Thr_Cov-19), vulnerability of COVID-19 (Vul_Cov-19), and the unexpected change in society factors and one independent variable that is personal disturbance factors is used in this paper. Moreover, using as an indicator which will determine disturbance of personal productivity (D_PP) in the society. Since multiple regression by partial least square-structural equation modeling is used to examined of data by following unstructured method. Moreover, the resulting point out three dependent variables significantly influences on the independent variable of personal productivity in the society. As a matter of fact, this study concludes the foremost influence factor on D_PP in society due to COVID-19 risk factors such as Thr_Cov-19, Vul_Cov-19, and unexpected changed in the society factors. This study contributes to introductory study but vibrant understanding in stimulating the prediction of personal productivity in the society due to the COVID-19 attacks.

PurposeBlended learning (BL) has been increasing in popularity and demand and has developed as a common practice in institutions of higher learning. Therefore, this study develops a model to evaluate the critical predictors that determine students' acceptance and deployment of BL in institutions of higher education based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB).Design/methodology/approachThe empirical analysis entails data collected from 1,811 responses from an online survey questionnaire from students in Malaysian universities, colleges and polytechnics. Partial least square–structural equation modeling (PLS–SEM) was employed for data analysis.FindingsThe results reveal that the attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control and self-efficacy were found to influence students' intention to accept BL. Moreover, results suggest that the intention of students to accept BL approach is significantly influenced by actual BL deployment.Research limitations/implicationsData were collected from students in universities, colleges and polytechnics only. Besides, this research is one of the limited studies that explored BL deployment in a Malaysian perspective.Practical implicationsFindings from this research not only add scientific evidence to BL literature but also provide a better understanding of the predictors that may motivate or discourage learners to deploy BL in institutions of higher learning.Social implicationsRespectively, findings from this study aid students to acquire and apply knowledge on how to effectively improve BL initiatives in learning activities.Originality/valueThis study is one of the fewer studies that investigate students' behavioral intentions toward BL deployment in Malaysia. Additionally, this study contributes to the understanding of the predictors that influence students' intention to accept and deploy BL in their respective institutions.

This study’s purpose is to measure entrepreneurial intention in near and distant time scales using temporal construal theory and the theory of planned behavior. It examines new patterns to measure individual intentions to become an entrepreneur, which are classified into short-term entrepreneurial intention and long-term entrepreneurial intention, using a two-country study. A cross-sectional study of 447 university students in business and non-business disciplines from Pakistan and Vietnam was conducted. Structural equation modeling and the partial least squares model were used to present path modeling and multigroup analysis. The proposed model for entrepreneurial temporal intention was tested using the theory of planned behavior dimensions with the potential temporal spectrum of short-term and long-term intentions. The results indicated differences in individual entrepreneurial temporal intentions across the two lower middle-income countries. The findings depict that short-term entrepreneurial intention significantly mediates the effect between the theory of planned behavior dimensions and long-term entrepreneurial intention, and more specifically, that long-term entrepreneurial intention is higher than short-term entrepreneurial intention in both countries. In comparison, the theory of planned behavior dimensions indicated more power in Pakistan’s student sample. This paper presents a new perspective to compare differences in entrepreneurial intention with time fluctuation and thus provides support in identifying potential nascent entrepreneurs based on their psychological distance in thinking and primitive action.

AbstractThe impact of negative personality traits on entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial behavior has become a research focus in the field of entrepreneurship. This study aimed to identify the influence of dark tetrad personality traits on the nascent entrepreneurial behavior and the mediating role of entrepreneurial intention. This study used partial least square-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to test the hypotheses on a sample of 347 undergraduate and postgraduate university students from China. The results of this study revealed that narcissism, psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and sadism have a positive and significant influence on nascent entrepreneurial behavior and entrepreneurial intention, which significantly partially mediates the relationship between dark tetrad and nascent entrepreneurial behavior. The finding of the study implies China’s higher education and policymakers to unlock the hidden potential of its youth. This study contributes to the emerging literature on psychology and entrepreneurship and provides evidence that individuals with a high level of dark tetrad are more likely to be involved in entrepreneurial action.
