The present study examined the constructs of the theory of planned behaviour regarding their predictability of intentions to use a condom among Xhosa-speaking adolescents in Eastern Cape, South Africa, using HIV/AIDS information as a moderator. Design: Quantitative data were collected from 196 adolescents in Eastern Cape, South Africa. A regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses. Results: A regression analysis showed that attitude and perceived behavioural control were significantly related to the intention to use a condom, but subjective norm was not. However, due to the moderating effect of HIV/AIDS information, attitude, perceived behavioural control and subjective norm predicted intention to use a condom. Conclusion: The findings show that HIV/AIDS information plays an important role in increasing the effect of the theory of planned behaviour on intention to use a condom. Thus, more emphasis should be on beliefs about the adverse effects of condom use, the ability to negotiate condom use, and the importance of other significant others in increasing awareness about HIV/AIDS in order to increase intention to use a condom.

Compliance Behaviour

Zakah compliance behaviour among Muzzaki has been discussed by academics and practitioners. However, less attention has been paid about how the compliance behaviour and what factors determine this Zakah compliance in Padang society. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the determinants of Zakah compliance behaviour from perspective of Theory of Planned Behaviour. Ten hypotheses are developed and tested in this study. Nine-four respondents filled and returned the questioner. Simple, multiple and hierarchal regression analysis are applied to gain the result. The result show that three hypotheses are accepted (i) perceived behaviour control has a significant effect on an intention to pay zakah, (ii) subjective norm has a significant relationship with zakah compliance behaviour, and (iii) an intention to pay zakah also has a significant impact on zakah compliance behaviour. Practically, the government can increase Ummah zakah compliance behaviour by improve an muzzaki’s intention to pay zakah through reduce the barriers to pay zakah and improve successful factors. This study theoretically contribute to theory of planned behaviour partially

Park And Ride

This research aimed to use the extended theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to determine whether it can explain users’ intention to use the bus-based park-and-ride (P&R) facilities in Putrajaya, Malaysia. This research introduced a new predictor related to the use of P&R facilities, namely trust. The survey involved 437 respondents. A structural equation model is used to show that trust positively influence the attitude and perceived behavioural control (PBC) towards the use of P&R facilities. However, the intention to use P&R facilities is not profoundly influenced by trust and subjective norm. Results also revealed that attitude, subjective norm, and PBC have a strong positive influence on the intention to use P&R facilities. In addition, several policy recommendations are discussed in this study. All things considered, the theory of planned behaviour was able to predict users’ intention to use P&R facilities in Malaysia. It is hoped that this research would increase researchers’ interest in conducting further investigation in this field and that the model is beneficial to service providers in helping them identify the factors that increase the number of P&R users.

Improve Service Quality

This study aims to understand why the usage of mobile entertainment services (MES) among young Bangladeshis is negligible. The authors propose a modification of combined technology acceptance model (TAM) and the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) model with additional factors. Questionnaire surveys were conducted in Bangladesh among young adult mobile users. The authors analysed the data of 251 valid responses via four TAM–TPB models. The study model, based on a modified TAM–TPB framework, fits generally well for mobile entertainment services in Bangladesh. The three factors of perceived behaviour control, perceived value, and attitude are important determinants for intention to use mobile entertainment services, and perceived behavioural control has the strongest direct effect on attitude and indirect effect on behavioural intention. The results suggest that mobile companies need to strengthen their organizational and technical support systems and improve service quality and affordability to encourage young consumers to use MES.

As environmental problems keep being concerned by many parties, not only actors in the production side are accused as roots of the problem, the consumer side should not also be neglected. Since it has been suggested that pro-environmental intention will probably lead to some responsible behavior, this study aims to explore factors influencing consumers’ pro-environmental behavioral intention by applying the framework of the theory of planned behavior (TPB). The study focused on exploring the behavior of international tourists from Russia, Australia and China who travel in Phuket Province, Thailand. The result of multiple regression analysis indicated that all factors were positively predictors of pro-environmental intention. Perceived behavioral control provided the highest impact (Beta = 0.543) whereas attitude toward pro-environmental behavior (Beta = 0.140) and subjective norms (Beta = 0.140) provided the lower impact and finally, perceived value (Beta = 0.087) provided the lowest impact.

Investment Behaviour

The low rate of investment in retail bonds among state-owned enterprise employees is worrying because this product is aimed at this type of customer. The theory of planned behaviour explains the possible reason(s) why the employee is reluctant to invest in retail bonds. This study sheds light by adding the product involvement variable to the original model to identify the intention to spend and what the factors are those are influencing it. As predicted, attitude and subjective norm are positively related to the intention to invest in retail bonds. Based on the results of data processing, it was found that the attitude and subjective norm variables are factors that positively and significantly affect the intentions of ORI investment by IDX employees. Also, the results of data processing showed that intention had a significant effect on the investment behaviour of ORI by IDX employees. This study is limited to discussing the intentions of ORI investment by IDX employees, making it possible for other researchers to examine different variables.
