Purpose The purpose of this paper is to apply the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to determine which psychosocial factors are predictors of older adults’ safe food storage practices at home. Design/methodology/approach An online structured questionnaire was developed and administered to older adults (60+). Two behavioural intention outcomes were investigated: thawing meats safely and storing leftovers within recommended guidelines. The survey instrument measured socio-demographic and TPB variables: attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control and intentions. A measure of self-reported habitual behaviour was also recorded and used to determine whether past practice influenced behavioural intentions. Findings Respondents (n=78) demonstrated good intentions to safely defrost meats and store leftovers. The models accounted for 41 and 48 per cent of the variance in intentions to perform safe storage behaviours. Attitudes and subjective norms were predictors of intentions to safely thaw meats. Habitual behaviour was a significant predictor of behavioural intentions to safely store leftovers. Perceived behavioural control was a significant predictor of intentions to thaw meats and store leftovers. Research limitations/implications The sample size was small, and results are to be interpreted with caution. Practical implications The results indicate that theory-based solutions to solving food safety among consumers may be a feasible strategy. Originality/value The study is the first of its kind to apply the TPB to this consumer group.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The intention-behaviour gap has been a barrier to health behavioural change. A total of 85 participants (aged 18–56 years) were recruited for a study that examined how two types of planning (Action and Coping) could bridge the intention-behaviour gap and increase physical exercise behaviours. The online study took place over two weeks, with participants completing pre- and post- measures of past exercise habits, intentions to exercise, subsequent physical exercise behaviours, intrinsic motivation levels, and engagement in action and coping planning. A hierarchical regression analysis showed that intentions, past exercise habits and action planning were significant predictors of change in physical exercise behaviours. Positive correlations were observed between participants’ past habits and their exercise behaviours during the study. 71.8% of participants met the World Health Organization’s (WHO) recommended guidelines for physical activity at the end of the study compared to the initial 58.8%, which evidences a significant increase in participant physical exercise behaviours. Our findings revealed that while intentions are important predictors for behavioural change, cultivating habits to engage in regular exercise seems to outweigh the significance of intentions. Moreover, action planning could be a helpful intervention to bridge the intention-behaviour gap to increase overall physical exercise behaviours. In the long-term, this would improve an individual’s mental and physical wellbeing and potentially alleviate the costly burden on public health services.

Abstract Research indicates that the misinterpretation of other’s emotions or intentions may lead to antisocial behaviour. This study investigated emotion and intention recognition in children with behavioural problems and examined their relationship and relations with behaviour problem severity. Participants were 7–11 year old children with behavioural problems (n = 93, mean age: 8.78, 82.8% male) who were taking part in an early intervention program and typically developing controls (n = 44, mean age: 9.82, 79.5% male). Participants completed emotion recognition and Theory of Mind tasks. Teachers and parents rated children’s emotional and behavioural problems. Children with behavioural problems showed impaired emotion and intention recognition. Emotion recognition and intention recognition were positively related and inversely associated with behavioural problem severity and, independently of one another, predicted behavioural problems. This study is the first to show that children with behavioural problems are impaired in identifying others’ emotions as well as intentions. These social cognitive processes were found to be related and inversely associated with severity of behavioural problems. This has important implications for intervention and prevention programmes for children with behavioural difficulties.

(1) Background: Partner violence prevention programmes do not produce the expected behavioural changes. Accordingly, experts suggest applying evidence-based behavioural models to identify the determinants of abusive behaviours. In this research, we applied the reasoned action approach (RAA) to predict the performance (boys) and acceptance (girls) of abusive behaviours in adolescents. (2) Method: We designed a questionnaire based on the RAA and performed a cross-sectional study. We analysed the predictive capacity of the RAA constructs on intentions with the sample of single adolescents (n = 1112). We replicated the analysis only with those who were in a relationship (n = 587) and in addition analysed the predictive capacity of intention on future behaviour (3 months later). (3) Results: The hierarchical regression analysis performed with the sample of single adolescents showed that the model explained 56% and 47% of the variance of boys’ intentions to perform the controlling and devaluing behaviours, respectively; and 62% and 33% of girls’ intention to accept them. With those in a relationship, the model explained 60% and 53% of the variance of boys’ intentions to perform the controlling and devaluating behaviour, respectively, and 70% and 38% of girls’ intention to accept them. Intention exerted direct effects on boys’ performance of controlling and devaluing behaviours (31% and 34% of explained variance, respectively) and on girls’ acceptance (30% and 7%, respectively). (4) Conclusions: The RAA seems useful to identify the motivational determinants of abusive behaviours, regardless of adolescents´ relationship status, and for their prediction. Perceived social norms emerge as a relevant predictor on which to intervene to produce behavioural changes with both sexes.

Intentionality plays a fundamental part in human social interactions and we know that interpretation of behaviours of conspecifics depends on the intentions underlying them. Most of the studies on intention attribution were undertaken with primates. However, very little is known on this topic in animals more distantly related to humans such as birds. Three hand-reared African grey parrots (Psittacus erithacus) were tested on their ability to understand human intentional actions. The subjects’ attention was not equally distributed across the conditions and their behavioural pattern also changed depending on the condition: the parrots showed more requesting behaviours (opening of the beak and request calls) when the experimenter was unwilling to give them seeds, and bit the wire mesh more that represented the obstacle when the experimenter was trying to give them food. For the first time we showed that a bird species, like primates, may be sensitive to behavioural cues of a human according to his intentions.

This paper aims to examine the impact of TripAdvisor reviews on behavioural intentions, basing on travellers' trust towards the e-WOM reviews. Four factors are proposed for building travellers’ trust and behavioural intentions: information quality, credibility, adoption and usefulness. Trust is expected to mediate the relationship between eWOM attributes and travellers’ behavioural intention. Data from 410 travellers were analysed using Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), and the findings show that TripAdvisor e-WOM attributes (information credibility, adoption and usefulness) significantly influence the traveller's trust. Besides, traveller behavioural intention was influenced considerably by TripAdvisor eWOM information credibility and usefulness. Lastly, trust in e-WOM significantly mediates travellers' behavioural intention. This paper confirms the importance of eWOM in the context of the tourism industry and travellers' trust and behaviour towards online review, which altered how consumers behave before deciding to travel.

There were 18 students participated in the qualitative study and 272 students responded to the survey questionnaire.MethodsA convergent parallel-mixed method design, involving a quantitative survey and qualitative focus group discussions was used among pharmacy students in a private university in Malaysia. Qualitative data of transcribed verbatim texts were then subjected to a thematic content analysis framework. Multiple correlations were undertaken using the quantitative data to examine how the dependent variable (self-reported knowledge) related to the independent variables (attitudes, behavioural intentions, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control.Primary outcomePharmacy students’ attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, behavioural intentions constructs led to their behaviour towards patient safety.Secondary outcomeThe quantitative study revealed that there was a moderate positive correlation between students’ self-reported knowledge and attitudes (r=0.48, p=0.03).ResultsPharmacy students’ attitudes and perceived behavioural control constructs had positive correlations with pharmacy students’ self-reported knowledge on patient safety. There was no correlation between students’ self-reported knowledge and subjective norms (r=0.27, p=0.23). There was a weak positive correlation between students’ self-reported knowledge and perceived behavioural control (r=0.39, p=0.04). There was no correlation between students’ self-reported knowledge and behavioural intention (r=0.20, p=0.56).ConclusionsTheory of planned behaviour constructs such as attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control and behavioural intentions of pharmacy students, defined their behaviour towards patient safety. Pharmacy students’ attitudes and perceived behavioural control constructs were correlated with their self-reported knowledge on patient safety.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Background: In recent years, rates of online cancer misinformation have grown, with many concerned that this could lead patients to alter their daily behaviours or forego conventional treatment. However, no published study has investigated whether exposure to cancer misinformation can affect health behaviours or behavioural intentions. Method: In this preregistered study, participants (N = 774) were exposed to cancer misinformation in the form of news stories before rating their intentions to engage in related behaviours. Each participant was randomly presented with two of four possible false cancer headlines such as “Drinking fluoridated water shown to increase cancer risk by a factor of 3”, before rating their intentions to engage in certain behaviours (such as avoiding fluoridated water). Participants were also randomly assigned to either an accuracy-nudge intervention intended to reduce susceptibility to misinformation or a control condition with no intervention. Results: Viewing the fake cancer headlines did not significantly affect participants’ behavioural intentions – e.g., those who saw the headline regarding fluoridated water were not more likely to report intentions to reduce their fluoridated water intake. The accuracy-nudge intervention did not affect behavioural intentions. Conclusion: Although cancer misinformation is considered a threat to public health, we conclude that once-off exposures to cancer misinformation may not be sufficient to significantly alter behavioural intentions. We note that claims about the effects of cancer misinformation on behaviour have not been adequately researched and we therefore call for more research into the behavioural effects of cancer misinformation exposure, particularly repeated exposure or information passed from trusted sources.

The purpose of this study is to investigate students’ intention to use ICT and use behaviour for learning and research by extending the UTAUT model with Health Issues and satisfaction as mediating variables between ergonomics factors and intention to use ICT relationship. This study employed a survey, which used a questionnaire to elicit data from university students and quantitative approaches to address the study's objective. A total of 1500 questionnaires were sent out, 972 responses were received, and 955 of them were useful. To examine students' ICT usage, the researchers used partial least squares structural equation modelling. The findings suggest that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence and health issues significantly influence students’ behavioural intentions to use ICTs. However, ergonomics factors negatively influence health issues. Finally, students ICT use behaviour was strongly influenced by behavioural intentions. The model explained 50.3% of students’ behavioural intention to use ICT for learning

With algorithmic recommendations becoming an important way and means of information distribution, social media platforms are developing rapidly, and students in colleges and universities today have become the main audience for their information access. In this paper, through the application of TPB model in the intention to fall in love of young female groups in colleges and universities, four variables, namely attention, attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioural control, were studied in depth, and a research model of factors influencing the relationship behaviour of young female groups was constructed based on the theoretical model of planned behaviour. According to the results, the factor of attention did not have a significant positive effect on relationship behaviour intentions, and behavioural attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control (PBC) had a significant positive effect on relationship behaviour intentions.

Al, Zaidi Mazin M. "Cyber security behavioural intentions for trade secret protection". Thesis, University of Warwick, 2017. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/108526/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Trade secrets have become an important aspect of competitive advantage for new and established businesses in the new digital economy. This is particularly true in corporate venturing, where most corporates rely on new entrepreneurial ventures with creative ideas to drive innovation and fuel growth. In this manner, these corporates run corporate venturing units such as corporate accelerators to support entrepreneurs creating new ventures. During the accelerated pace of venturing, trade secrets become the core intangible asset that requires protection for any new venture. Yet, people remain the weakest link in the cyber security chain and that requires more understanding to enhance cyber security protection. A new approach was suggested in this study to explore the protection of trade secrets through the confidentiality of information, the ownership of intellectual property and the secrecy of commercial secrets. This study developed a conceptual model to explore cyber security behaviour for trade secret protection within corporate accelerators. Well-established theories were adopted to develop the research conceptual model for trade secret protection, integrating the protection motivation theory (PMT), social bond theory (SBT) and the concept of psychological ownership. This study began with a comprehensive up-to-date systematic literature review in the field of cyber security behavioural intentions over the past decade. The top 10 journals in the field of cyber security behaviour were reviewed and 46 publications that used 35 behaviour theories were identified. A concept matrix based on a concept-centric approach was applied to present the behavioural theories used in the relevant literature. By analysing the relevant literature results, the key cyber security behaviour elements were identified and illustrated via a concept map and matrix. Based on the output of the literature review analysis, valuable findings and insights were presented. This study investigates entrepreneurs’ cyber security behavioural intentions to protect trade secrets in agile dynamic corporate environments. The research design adopted a hypothetico-deductive approach using a quantitative survey for empirical data collection. To evaluate the conceptual model, a partial least squares method of structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) analysis was used. This involved validity and reliability assessments, in addition to hypotheses testing. The research results found statistically significant relationships for severity, vulnerability, response efficacy, response cost, involvement and personal norms in relation to cyber security behavioural intentions to protect trade secrets.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
ABSTRACT - The problem of how to support “intentions to make behavioural changes” (IBC) and “behaviour changes” (BC) in smoking cessation when there is a scarcity of resources is a pressing issue in public health terms. The present research focuses on the use of information and communications technologies and their role in smoking cessation. It is developed in Portugal after the ratification of WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (on 8 November 2005). The prevalence of smokers over fifteen years of age within the population stood at 20.9% (30.9% for men and 11.8% for women). While the strategy of helping people to quit smoking has been emphasised at National Health Service (NHS) level, the uptake of cessation assistance has exceeded the capacity of the service. This induced the search of new theoretical and practical venues to offer alternative options to people willing to stop smoking. Among these, the National Health Plan (NHP) of Portugal (2004-2010), identifies the use of information technologies in smoking cessation. eHealth and the importance of health literacy as a means of empowering people to make behavioural changes is recurrently considered an option worth investigating. The overall objective of this research is to understand, in the Portuguese context, the use of the Internet to help people to stop smoking. Research questions consider factors that may contribute to “intentions to make behavioural changes” (IBC) and “behavioural changes” (BC) while using a Web-Assisted Tobacco Intervention Probe (WATIP). Also consideration is given to the trade-off on the use of the Web as a tool for smoking cessation: can it reach a vast number of people for a small cost (efficiency) demonstrating to work in the domain of smoking cessation (efficacy)”?
In addition to the introduction, there is a second chapter in which the use of tobacco is discussed as a public health menace. The health gains achieved by stopping smoking and the means of quitting are also examined, as is the use of the Internet in smoking cessation. Then, several research issues are introduced. These include background theory and the theoretical framework for the Sense of Coherence. The research model is also discussed. A presentation of the methods, materials and of the Web-Assisted Tobacco Intervention Probe (WATIP) follows.
In chapter four the results of the use of the Web-Assisted Tobacco Intervention Probe (WATIP) are presented. This study is divided into two sections. The first describes results related to quality control in relation to the Web-Assisted Tobacco Intervention Probe (WATIP) and gives an overview of its users. Of these, 3,150 answered initial eligibility questions. In the end, 1,463 met all eligibility requirements, completed intake, decided on a day to quit smoking (Dday) and declared their “intentions to make behavioural changes” (IBC) while a second targeted group of 650 did not decide on a Dday. With two quit attempts made before joining the platform, most of the participants had experienced past failures while wanting to stop. The smoking rate averaged 21 cigarettes per day. With a mean age of 35, of the participants 55% were males. Among several other considerations, gender and the Sense of Coherence (SOC) influenced the success of participants in their IBC and endeavour to set quit dates. The results of comparing males and females showed that, for current smokers, establishing a Dday was related to gender differences, not favouring males (OR=0.76, p<0.005). Belonging to higher Socio-economic strata (SES) was associated with the intention to consider IBC (when compared to lower SES condition) (OR=1.57, p<0.001) and higher number of school years (OR=0.70, p<0.005) favoured the decision to smoking cessation. Those who demonstrated higher confidence in their likelihood of success in stopping in the shortest time had a higher rate of setting a Dday (OR=0.51, p<0.001). There were differences between groups in IBC reflecting the high and low levels of the SOC score (OR=1.43, p=0.006), as those who considered setting a Dday had higher levels of SOC. After adjusting for all variables, stages of readiness to change and SOC were kept in the model. This is the first Arm of this research where the focus is a discussion of the system’s implications for the participants’ “intentions to make behavioural changes” (IBC).
Moreover, a second section of this study (second Arm) offers input collected from 77 in-depth interviews with the Web-Assisted Tobacco Intervention Probe (WATIP) users. Here, “Behaviour Change” (BC) and the usability of the platform are explored a year after IBC was declared. A percentage of 32.9% of self-reported, 12-month quitters in continuous abstinence from smoking from Dday to the 12-month follow- up point of the use of the Web-Assisted Tobacco Intervention Probe (WATIP) has been assessed. Comparing the Sense of Coherence (SOC) scores of participants by their respective means, according to the two groups, there was a significant difference in these scores of non smokers (BC) (M=144,66, SD=22,52) and Sense of Coherence (SOC) of smokers (noBC) (M=131,51, SD=21,43) p=0.014. This WATIP strategy and its contents benefit from the strengthening of the smoker’s sense of coherence (SOC), so that the person’s progress towards a life without tobacco may be experienced as comprehensible, manageable and meaningful. In this sample the sense of coherence (SOC) effect is moderate although it is associated with the day to quit smoking (Dday).
Some of the limitations of this research have to do with self-selection bias, sample size (power) and self-reporting (no biochemical validation). The enrolment of participants was therefore not representative of the smoking population. It is not possible to verify the Web-Assisted Tobacco Intervention Probe (WATIP) evaluation of external validity; consequently, the results obtained cannot be applied generalized. No participation bias is provided. Another limitation of this study is the associated limitations of interviews. Interviewees’ perception that fabricating answers could benefit them more than telling the simple truth in response to questions is a risk that is not evaluated (with no external validation like measuring participants’ carbon monoxide levels). What emerges in this analysis is the relevance of the process that leads to the establishment of the quit day (Dday) to stop using tobacco. In addition, technological issues, when tailoring is the focus, are key elements for scrutiny. The high number of dropouts of users of the web platform mandates future research that should concentrate on the matters of the user-centred design of portals. The focus on gains in health through patient-centred care needs more research, so that technology usability be considered within the context of best practices in smoking cessation.

Ren, Min. "Behavioural intentions in the motel industry : an empirical analysis". Diss., Lincoln University, 2008. http://hdl.handle.net/10182/1097.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The New Zealand hospitality sector has become increasingly competitive in the past decade. The increase in competition has prompted motel management to focus on generating favourable customers’ perceptions of their service as favourable perceptions encourage repeat purchase. Strategically, retaining existing customers and attracting new customers will be critical if motels are going to remain profitable in New Zealand’s competitive accommodation market. There is a conceptual gap in the marketing literature as there has been very limited published research on service quality, value, customer satisfaction or behavioural intentions on the motel industry. This study seeks to fill this conceptual gap in the motel industry by identifying the dimensions of service quality, and empirically examining the interrelationships among the service quality dimensions, service quality, value, customer satisfaction, and behavioural intentions. The findings of this study are based on the analysis of a sample of 349 respondents who stayed at a full service New Zealand motel on Riccarton Road in Christchurch. Of the 600 questionnaires distributed, a total of 349 useable responses were returned resulting in a 58.2% useable response rate. Support was found for use of the primary dimensions: Interaction Quality, Physical Environment Quality, and Outcome Quality as broad dimensions of service quality in a hierarchical factor structure for motels. Ten sub-dimensions of service quality, as perceived by motel customers, were determined using focus group interviews and exploratory factor analysis. These ten sub-dimensions were: (1) Staff Professionalism, (2) Accuracy of Reservation, (3) Tangibles, (4) Cleanliness and Comfort, (5) Noise Level, (5) Parking, (7) Security, (8) Accuracy of Billing, (9) Location, and (10) Pleasant Stay. Support for the hypothesised paths between Service Quality, Value (price), Satisfaction, and Favourable Behavioural Intentions was confirmed. The results of the regression analysis make a contribution to the service marketing theory by providing an empirically based insight into the Service Quality construct in the motel industry. The study also provides a framework for understanding the effects of the three primary dimensions on Service Quality and how Service Quality affects Value (price), Satisfaction, and Favourable Behavioural Intentions. Value (price) was also empirically supported as an important predictor variable that has a moderating effect on the relationship between service quality and customer satisfaction.

Dearing, Gemma. "Young children's pro-social behavioural intentions towards obese peers". Thesis, University of Leeds, 2018. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/22328/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Stigma against obesity has been demonstrated in children as young as 3 years old. Previous research has emphasised the negative attitudes displayed by young children towards peers with obesity however, far less consideration has been given to positive social interactions, such as pro-social behaviour. The aim of this study was to further explore young children’s attitudes towards peers with obesity across a range of pro-social behaviours. Young children (aged 4-6 years old, n=72) were asked to select characters with either healthy weight or obesity in a story involving different pro-social scenarios (helping, sharing & comforting) and asked to give a reason for their character selection. The frequency of character selections were analysed as well as using thematic analysis to identify the themes in children’s reasoning. Comments were also coded for valence and linked to children’s character selection. In line with expectations, children were less likely to choose a character with obesity as a playmate. Girls were less likely to help and comfort a character with obesity and boys less likely to share. Overall there was little evidence of negativity towards the characters with obesity within children’s reasoning, although two children were consistently negative. These findings indicate that young children may have unconscious bias against obesity or that they are not attuned to obesity any more than other physical differences. This study suggests that for the majority of young children, stigma against obesity is not as pervasive as has been portrayed in earlier research. Young children may not require interventions to reduce obesity stigma, however, promoting pro-social behaviour generally may help with peer acceptance and prevent stigma against obesity from developing.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Adventure tourism is considered a cornerstone of the tourism industry by the World Tourism Organisation and has experienced rapid growth prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. This growth was facilitated by ever more diversified consumer demand for adventure tourism, with a fusion of traditional Western markets and emerging Eastern markets that increasingly seek active outdoor experiences. Due to their nature-based location, adventure tourism experiences are expected to also be in high demand as part of the recovery of international travel from the pandemic. Yet, research that examines consumers’ adventure tourism perceptions, intentions, and influencing factors on their decision-making across cultures remains scarce. This study addresses these gaps, focusing on youth consumers due to their high importance for the global tourism industry and their ability to shape the behaviour of future generations of travellers. The Chinese youth market, which is compared to the Australian and German youth markets, is this study’s primary focus.
Specifically, this study investigates four antecedents to youth consumers’ intention to participate in adventure tourism across cultures. These antecedents encompass (1) the youth consumers’ perceptions of adventure tourism, comprised of associated dimensions and attitudes towards those dimensions, (2) factors that drive intention, (3) potential barriers to intention, and (4) cultural traits that moderate these perceptions, drivers, and barriers. First, this study reviews the literature systematically to conceptualise adventure tourism. The derived framework highlights 22 dimensions of adventure tourism, differentiated into consumer-based, product-based, and hybrid pillars. Given the intent of this study to investigate influences on behavioural intention, this study then employs the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) as a theoretical basis to guide empirical data iii collection. The TPB is a well-established theory on consumer behaviour and tourism literature. Study 1 consists of focus group discussions (N=24) and Study II of individual online interviews (N=67). Combinedly, they investigate the sample cultures of mainland China (n=34), Australia (n=37), and Germany (n=20). A pre-interview survey and a photo-elicitation activity - that incorporates six diverse adventure tourism activities - further support data collection and assist in identifying youth consumers’ adventure tourism perceptions, drivers and barriers to intention, and respective underlying cultural moderating factors.
Findings show that youth consumers across all cultures perceive adventure tourism as physically and/or mentally challenging tourism activities in nature that provide a sense of novelty, excitement, enjoyment, and, occasionally, risk. Youth consumer attitudes towards these various elements are predominantly positive across all cultures. Immersion and interaction with the natural environment and novelty of the adventure activity and its setting are highly sought after. Cultural discrepancies are most evident in the risk dimension. Chinese youth consumers are highly risk-avoidant and value safety, while the risk tolerance of Australians and Germans is higher. Chinese are also more concerned about self-efficacy and overly physical challenge than Australians and Germans.
Previous travel and outdoor activity experience, the influence of friends, and the COVID-19 pandemic drive adventure tourism intention across cultures. Chinese decision-making is also highly influenced and driven by various online channels, both pre and post-adventure. Their inspiration and intention habitually derives from online content consumption and is further solidified through in-depth online research of their adventure activity of interest. Post experience, Chinese seek self-promotion through the online sharing of their adventure experience. Spontaneous opportunity for adventure in the iv destination drives Australian and German intention, yet, is not driving Chinese intention due to different decision-making processes which are explained in the study.
Group sizes of more than six, the high cost of some activities, and a lack of time impede youth consumers’ adventure tourism intentions across cultures. Moreover, limited trustworthiness towards the adventure operator in the destination - based on first impressions of the shop, equipment, and staff - poses a barrier for the Australian and German markets. Contrariwise, a lack of opportunity to conduct adventure tourism is a barrier for Chinese consumers. National and family cultures moderate youth consumers’ adventure tourism perceptions, drivers, barriers, and thus their intentions. Overall, Australian culture is adventure-inclined, German culture adventure-receptive, and Chinese culture adventure-reluctant. Despite this, Chinese youth consumers are highly interested in adventure tourism and surprisingly independent in their decision-making. The study, therefore, proposes differentiated and direct targeted marketing to Chinese youth consumers that implements the various learnings that emerge from this research.
The findings of this study significantly contribute to the body of knowledge of adventure tourism, youth consumer behaviour and, specifically, the influence of culture on intention to participate in adventure tourism. This research has developed a comprehensive academic conceptualisation of adventure tourism and makes a further theoretical contribution through identifying six determinants of tourist behaviour, building upon the TPB. These determinants include the tourist’s perception of the tourism activity, cognitive/affective drivers and barriers, third party perceptions, the ability to perform the tourism activity, previous experience, and spontaneous decision-making. Practically, this research informs tourism providers seeking to attract youth consumers of different cultural backgrounds, particularly in an adventure tourism context. Findings advocate for v a marketing and product design approach that considers consumers’ culturally diverse values, attitudes, and behaviours.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis presents three essays on social preferences and the influence of the intentions of another party. All studies investigate reciprocity and its relevance but do so in different strategical settings. In doing so, crucial factors for enhancing social relationships are determined and examined.
The first study examines the role of reciprocity during a bargaining process. It turns out that adopting too tough a bargaining stance can lead to worse outcomes. The second essay investigates complex 'revealed intentions' and finds that intention-based benevolence is more than just repaying another person’s generosity. Individuals also react to the other’s willingness to be vulnerable. The third essay emphasizes the role of beliefs on an agent’s evaluation of another’s intention. Our results indicate that individual differences in reactions to the other agent’s payoff expectations may not be driving the often found 'no-effect' of expectations on social behaviour.

Choi, Ki Jung. "Understanding Post-adoption Behavioural Intentions of Mobile Travel App Users". Thesis, Griffith University, 2018. http://hdl.handle.net/10072/382739.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The growth in smartphones and mobile connectivity has seen a corresponding increase
in mobile applications (apps). One area of growth has been travel apps, which enable
people to plan travel, make bookings, or access information. The tourism industry has
invested considerable resources and funds into travel apps that aim to improve the
traveller experience. However, for their investments to be profitable, the industry must
ensure that after the initial adoption, travel apps are continuously used as intended and
are recommended by travellers to others. Thus, building on the expectationconfirmation
model developed for information systems (Bhattacherjee, 2001b), this
study developed and tested a conceptual framework to strengthen the understanding of
travel app use by examining travellers’ post-adoption behavioural intentions.
This study used a sequential mixed methods approach consisting of two stages:
qualitative and quantitative. The first stage of the study employed in-depth interviews
with 22 travel app users who had downloaded and used travel apps on their portable
devices (i.e., smartphones or tablets) for a particular travel-related purpose in the last 12
months. The qualitative phase was used to propose an extended Bhattacherjee’s (2001b)
model by identifying additional influential factors of functional value, hedonic value,
satisfaction, and trust as predictors of travel app users’ continued use and
recommendation intentions. It also identified several moderators including travel app
types, familiarity, and technology proficiency.
The second stage involved conducting an online survey. Data were collected from 509
travel app users to test the proposed model, using structural equation modelling and
multigroup analyses. The results of the structural model indicated that continued use
and recommendation intentions were directly influenced by perceived usefulness, ease
of use, incentives, enjoyment, satisfaction, and trust, with perceived usefulness exerting
the greatest influence on both continued use and recommendation intentions. More
specifically, travel app users’ continued use and recommendation intentions were
mediated by overall satisfaction and trust with the travel app performance based on their
expectations. In addition, the results revealed that travel app users’ satisfaction was
driven by perceived ease of use (functional value) and enjoyment (hedonic value), and
building trust was notably connected to perceived usefulness.
The results also indicated that the partial moderating effects of travel app types, users’
levels of familiarity, and technology proficiency on the proposed set of relationships in
travel app post-adoption formation. Travellers who used apps mainly for searching
travel-related information decided their future behaviour with respect to travel apps on
the basis of trust and the enjoyment they gained from the app use; however, those who
used apps for booking accommodation and airlines cared most about the usefulness of
the travel apps. For the low-familiarity travel app users, the results revealed that their
post-adoption behavioural intentions tended to be decided more by functional and
financial benefits than the high-familiarity travel app users. In addition, the results
indicated that the low-technology proficient users were more strongly affected by the
accuracy and consistency of the travel app than high-technology users were on
continued use intention.
This study advances the literature by offering insights from travel app users’
experiences. A qualitative approach was used to investigate the factors that affected the
users’ post-adoption behavioural intentions and further delineated the relationships
between those factors and travellers’ continued use and recommendation intentions. The
study also extends the literature on post-adoption behaviour and the expectationconfirmation
model by considering functional value, hedonic value, and trust based on
the expectations–travel app performance congruence with mobile app use experiences in
the tourism industry. In addition, the fundamental contribution of this study is to
provide theoretical justification, as well as empirical evidence, in support of the linkages
between the key factors, satisfaction, and trust in the process of post-adoption
behavioural intention development for travel apps.
The findings also provide insights for travel companies, accommodation providers, and
marketers relating to the importance of financial benefits and monetary value from
travel app use, such as mobile deals, last-minute deals, and discounted rates for travel
activities. The findings indicate travel companies, accommodation providers, app
developers, and marketers need to spend more time promoting mobile and last-minute
deals and on developing suitable pricing strategies tailored specifically for app users.
Furthermore, this study offers insights into how travel companies and marketers can
differentiate the ways they treat their customers based on travel app types, the level of
familiarity with travel apps, and technology proficiency. Another significant benefit of
this study for travel app developers and service providers is the ability to understand travellers’ congruence between expectations and travel app performances. This can
enhance the reliability of information and functions provided in apps to decrease
traveller uncertainty regarding their choices and future behaviour.Thesis (PhD Doctorate)

Wu, Hung-Che. "An empirical study of behavioural intentions in the Taiwan hotel industry". Lincoln University, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/10182/1793.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The issue of behavioural intentions has attracted the attention of hotel marketers and academics because favourable behavioural intentions help hotels to retain customers. The marketing literature has identified that service quality, perceived value, image, customer satisfaction and demographic variables are significant determinants of behavioural intentions. This suggests that behavioural intentions are a multi-dimensional concept. Despite the importance of behavioural intentions, there is limited research on this construct in the hotel industry. The aim of this research was to gain an empirical understanding of behavioural intentions in the Taiwan hotel sector. A multi-level model was used as a framework for the analysis. The dimensions of service quality as perceived by hotel customers were identified through the literature review and focus group discussions. Hypotheses were formulated and tested to examine the interrelationships between behavioural intentions, service quality, customer satisfaction, perceived value and image, and to determine if perceived value plays a moderating role between service quality and customer satisfaction. Finally, customer perceptions of these constructs were compared based on demographic factors such as age, gender and income. The findings of this study were based on the analysis of a sample of 580 customers who had stayed at a five-star hotel in Kaohsiung City of Taiwan. Support was found for the use of a multi-level model and the primary dimensions: Interaction Quality, Physical Environment Quality and Outcome Quality, as broad dimensions of service quality. The 12 sub-dimensions of service quality, as perceived by hotel customers, were identified. These were: Employees’ Conduct, Employees’ Expertise, Employees’ Problem-Solving, Customer-to-Customer Interaction, Décor & Ambience, Room Quality, Availability of Facility, Design, Location, Valence, Waiting Time and Sociability. The results indicated that each of the primary dimensions varied in terms of their importance to overall perceived service quality, as did the sub-dimensions of the primary dimensions. In addition, the statistical results supported a relationship between perceived value and service quality, image and service quality, customer satisfaction, perceived value, image and service quality, and behavioural intentions, image and customer satisfaction. The results also revealed that customer perceptions of the constructs were primarily affected by their purpose of travel and occupation. The results contribute to the services marketing theory by providing an empirically based insight into the service quality, perceived value, image, customer satisfaction and behavioural intentions constructs in the Taiwan hotel industry. This research also provides an analytical framework for understanding the effects of the three primary dimensions on service quality and the effect of service quality on constructs, such as, perceived value, image, customer satisfaction and behavioural intentions. This study will assist the management of the hotel industry to develop and implement a market-oriented service strategy in order to achieve a high quality of service, upgrade customers’ levels of satisfaction, and create favourable future behavioural intentions.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Competition in the mobile services industry is intense, with players in the industry offering generally similar subscription plans. Opportunities are few for differentiating one service provider from another. In the light of prior research suggesting value is multi-dimensional, the present study, which examines how these dimensions impact customer satisfaction and repurchase intentions, provides differentiation opportunities for mobile service providers through focusing on value dimensions that are important to customers. Of six perceived value dimensions examined in the present research, value for money, reputation and social value dimensions had significant effects on customer satisfaction and repurchase intentions. One way for companies in the highly commoditized mobile service industry to minimize customer defection is to enhance their relationships with customers. However, as relationship building comes with a cost, it is of interest for companies to know whether certain customer groups will reciprocate more than others with loyalty if they are satisfied. The results from the present study show customer relationship inclination, the customer attribute examined, did not moderate the relationship between customer satisfaction and repurchase intention. Finally, recent studies have differentiated measures of repurchase intentions on the basis of volition levels and have suggested that better model fit can be achieved when higher volition measures are used. Intentions-as-expectations represents the lower volition end and intentions-as-wants represents the higher volition end of intention measure. However, the present study did not find any significant differences in model fit with the different intention measures used.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose – Hosting conferences has always been of crucial importance for the development of the pre and post-seasons of some destinations in Croatia. Considering that students are becoming the most frequent conference participants, the authors recognized the need to measure their memorable conference experience (MCE). Methodology – To this aim, a questionnaire was created, based on the relevant scientific literature, and distributed online and onsite. Research was conducted among 108 students of the Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management in Opatija. Findings – This research examines key factors in creating MCEs for students, who could recall their previous memorable conference experience. Exploratory Factor Analysis was performed first, followed by the hierarchical clustering method and regression analysis to determine significant clusters among participants and their influence on behavioural intention. The results indicate that affectively loyal participants are more likely to show their behavioural intention, in comparison with affectively non-loyal participants. Contribution – The findings suggest essential implications for the tourism experience theory and for future conference organizing committeeswell.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Passengers’ behavioural intentions after experiencing transit services can be viewed as signals that show if a customer continues to utilise a company’s service. Users’ behavioural intentions can depend on a series of aspects that are difficult to measure directly. More recently, transit passengers’ behavioural intentions have been just considered together with the concepts of service quality and customer satisfaction. Due to the characteristics of the ways for evaluating passengers’ behavioural intentions, service quality and customer satisfaction, we retain that this kind of issue could be analysed also by applying ordered regression models. This work aims to propose just an ordered probit model for analysing service quality factors that can influence passengers’ behavioural intentions towards the use of transit services. The case study is the LRT of Seville (Spain), where a survey was conducted in order to collect the opinions of the passengers about the existing transit service, and to have a measure of the aspects that can influence the intentions of the users to continue using the transit service in the future.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIT2016.2016.3199

This research aims to identify the factors affecting the behaviour of international tourists based on online reviews. To further understand tourist perceptions and opinions from online posts reviews Netnography approach has been implemented. A few studies have used Netnography to investigate online reviews of hotels and restaurants, but there has been limited examinations of online reviews of tourist attractions. To date, no studies have been done on this concerning Saudi Arabia. The OutWit Hub software was used to extract TripAdvisor reviews and content automatically. The data collection focused on attractions (Things To Do) located in Jeddah and Riyadh, the most populated cities in Saudi Arabia with a wide range of attractions and activities, including sights and landmarks, nature parks, and museums. The following approaches were utilised for netnographic analysis: first form the studied culture or group; collect data; analysis and interpretation: report on study findings and comprehend the theoretical consequences. The most significant findings were that the data supported correlations between visitors’ behavioural intentions, travel motivations and experience quality. This research provides evidence that travel motivations and experience quality affect the development of tourist behavioural intentions. This research offers policymakers, destination planners and industry professionals a proper and thorough analysis of tourists’ behaviour and needs.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose – this paper aims to examine the effect of framing price promotion on consumers’ purchase intentions. The main purpose of this paper is to analyse the impact of percentage and monetary price discount frames, discount levels of 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% on customer behavioural intention and perception within a high-end hospitality industry context. Research methodology – this study considers 8 manipulated sample scenarios that have been developed. In summary, the experiment consisted of 2×4 designs of the high-end hospitality industry. Two independent variables were included in the experiment: two discount formats (€-off, %-off) and four discount levels to instigate the impact it has on the behavioural intentions and perceptions. Findings – research has proved that in the high-end hospitality industry, different price discount frames and levels have a significant impact on customer behavioural intentions and perceptions. Research limitations – the results of this study show that the threshold for the discount rate may depend on the type of hotel. Therefore, in the future, the impact of a discount on several hotels of different levels should be assessed in one study. Practical implications – the practical implication for service firms that want to use price discount promotions to encourage sales and increase revenue is that they should carefully consider the price range and the value or quality of image they intend to signal when using these different price discount frames and the service they are selling to determine the discount level to use. Originality/Value – this paper is valuable to high-end service marketers that seek to use price discount promotions to encourage sales and increase revenue.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Increased meat consumption is said to have detrimental effects on health, environmental, and non-ethical. One alternative to meat consumption is meat analogues. To our knowledge, Malaysian consumers' perceptions, expectations and their purchase intention of meat analogues is less explored. In our study, significant determinants of consumers’ purchase intentions of meat analogues were studied on 387 consumers by using the extended Ajzen's theory of planned behaviour (TPB). The TPB model accounted for 49% of the variance in purchase intention and 6% of the variance in purchase behaviour. It was revealed that attitude, subjective norms, environmental concerns, healthiness influence, and objective knowledge were all statistically significant predictors of consumers' intention to purchase meat analogues. Purchase intention had a significant but negative correlation on purchase behaviour . We found no evidence that perceived behavioural control, food neophobia, and perceived monetary barriers influenced purchase intention. Knowledge on meat analogues was not significantly correlated with attitude towards meat analogues. Our study also confirmed that meat substitutes should taste, feel, and prepare similarly to meats. In a nutshell, the research findings indicated that meat analogue producers should emphasize on improving the sensorial qualities of their existing meat substitute products and increasing consumers’ awareness about the novel food product.

The purpose of the present research is to assess the perceptions of authenticity and crowding of cruise tourists visiting a port of call and its influence on their future behavioural intentions. The research was carried out in the city of Valencia, because it is one of the main Spanish cruise ports and is a representative city of the Mediterranean ports of call for the cruise business. A total of 467 valid interviews were obtained. For the analysis of data, the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS version 22.0) was used. The findings reveal that Valencia is perceived as an authentic destination with moderate levels of human and spatial crowding. The analysis also demonstrates that there is a significant relationship between the assessed perceptions and the post-visit behavioural intentions, although, in the case of crowding, the association varies depending on the nature of crowding.

Lucas, Brian. Behaviour Change Interventions for Energy Efficiency. Institute of Development Studies, settembre 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2022.138.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Behavioural interventions are policies and programmes that incorporate insights from scientists who study human behaviour (such as psychology and behavioural economics), with the aim of encouraging socially desirable behaviours by removing barriers and creating incentives or disincentives (Cornago, 2021). Very few behavioural interventions for energy efficiency have been documented in Eastern Europe and the Western Balkans, and none in North Macedonia. The limited experience that has been documented in the region consists of a few small trials which used behavioural principles to inform households about approaches to energy conservation, but none of these trials have demonstrated a significant effect on behaviour. Behavioural interventions have been widely used elsewhere in the world, particularly in North America, Western Europe, and Australia, and there are many studies evaluating their impacts in these regions (Andor & Fels, 2018, p. 182). This report focuses primarily on household energy efficiency, and particularly on the most widespread and well-documented interventions, which are those related to providing feedback on energy consumption and labelling consumer goods. Although behavioural interventions have been shown to produce significant impacts and to be cost-effective in many situations, the available evidence has some limitations. Many examples that have been documented are small-scale trials or pilot projects; large-scale, institutionalised policy interventions based on behavioural insights are rare (Users TCP and IEA, 2020, p. 22). In many studies, experiments with small sample sizes and short durations show larger impacts than larger and longer-term studies, suggesting that pilot studies may over-estimate the savings that might be achieved by large-scale programmes (Andor & Fels, 2018, p. 182; Erhardt-Martinez et al., 2010, p. iv). The amount of energy saved by behavioural interventions is often fairly small and varies widely from one programme to another, suggesting that the effectiveness of these interventions may be highly dependent on local context and on details of design and implementation. Finally, many studies rely on participants reporting their intentions, and on hypothetical rather than actual purchasing decisions, and some studies have found a divergence between stated intentions and actual behaviour (Grünig et al., 2010, p. 41; Users TCP and IEA, 2020, pp. 75–76; Yang et al., 2015, pp. 21–22).

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Health Care Workers (HCWs) are the backbone of Ontario’s COVID-19 pandemic response and are a key vaccination priority group. About 80% of Ontario HCWs intend to receive COVID-19 vaccine.1 Challenges include the logistics of delivering the vaccine to this mobile and diverse group and improving vaccine confidence in the remaining 20%. These challenges can be overcome by allaying safety concerns and highlighting personal benefits; tailoring messages to factors associated with lower intention (e.g. age, gender, ethnicity and work setting); employing trusted leaders to set the tone and peers to build social norms; and leveraging public health organizations and health institutions as existing channels of influence.

This report presents findings drawn from qualitative remote ethnography research with 24 UK participants conducted during July and August 2021, plus nine peer-to-peer interviews conducted by main sample participants with their friends and family. This research aimed to build on existing evidence in this area to fill gaps and provide an up-to-date snapshot of UK public experiences. Areas of focus included: Motivations for dietary choices Any gaps between consumer intention and behaviour Trade-offs and contextual differences (e.g. in vs. out-of home behaviours) The roles of specialist diets, substitution approaches, alternatives and ‘imitations’, locally/UK sourced meat and dairy, socio-demographics, culture and family Impact and role of food labelling and terminology The sample represented a range of variables including age, gender, nationality (England, Wales, Northern Ireland), urbanity/rurality, lifestage and household composition - and dietary profile (carnivore, ‘cutting down,’ vegetarian, vegan). This report was informed by an evidence review by the University of Bath on the factors underpinning the consumption of meat and dairy among the general public.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The purpose of this text or dissertation is to throw some basic light on a fundamental problem concerning manhood, namely the question of evil, its main sources, dynamics and importance for human attitudes and behaviour. The perspective behind the analysis itself is that of psychology. Somebody, or many, may feel at bit nervous by the word “evil” itself. It may very well be seen as too connected to religion, myth and even superstition. Yet those who are motivated to lose oneself in the subject retain a deep interest in human destructiveness, malevolence and hate, significant themes pointing at threatening prospects for mankind. The text is organized or divided into four main ordinary chapters, the three first of them organized or divided into continuous and numbered sections. A crucial point or question is of cause how to define evil itself. It can of cause be done both intentional, instrumental and by consequence. Other theorists however have stated that the concept of evil exclusively rests on a myth originated in the Judean-Christian conception of Satan and ultimate evil. This last argument presupposes evil itself as non-existent in the real rational world. It seems however a fact that most people attach certain basic meaning to the concept, mainly that it represents ultimately bad and terrible actions and behaviour directed toward common people for the purpose of bringing upon them ultimate pain and suffer. However, there is no room for essentialism here, meaning that we simply can look “inside” some original matter to get to know what it “really” is. Rather, a phenomenon gets its identity from the constituted meaning operating within a certain human communities and contexts loaded with intentionality and inter-subjective meaning. As mentioned above, the concept of evil can be interpreted both instrumental and intentional, the first being the broadest of them. Here evil stands for behaviour and human deeds having terrifying or fatal consequences for subjects and people or in general, regardless of the intentions behind. The intentional interpretation however, links the concept to certain predispositions, characteristics and even strong motives in subjects, groups and sometimes political systems and nations. I will keep in mind and clear the way for both these perspectives for the discussion in prospect. This essay represents a psychological perspective on evil, but makes it clear that a more or less complete account of such a psychological view also should include a thorough understanding or integration of some basic social and even biological assumptions. However, I consider a social psychological position of significant importance, especially because in my opinion it represents some sort of coordination of knowledge and theoretical perspectives inherent in the subject or problem itself, the main task here being to integrate perspectives of a psychological as well as social and biological kind. Since humans are essential social creatures, the way itself to present knowledge concerning the human condition, must be social of some sort and kind, however not referring to some kind of reductionism where social models of explanation possess or holds monopoly. Social and social psychological perspectives itself represents parts of the whole matter regarding understanding and explanation of human evil. The fact that humans present, or has to represent themselves as humans among other humans, means that basically a social language is required both to explain and describe human manners and ways of being. This then truly represents its own way or, more correctly, level or standard of explanation, which makes social psychology some sort of significant, though not sufficient. More substantial, the vision itself of integrating different ontological and theoretical levels and objects of science for the purpose of manifesting or make real a full-fledged psychological perspective on evil, should be considered or characterized a meta-psychological perspective. The text is partially constructed as a review of existing theories and theorists concerning the matter of evil and logically associated themes such as violence, mass murder, genocide, antisocial behaviour in general, aggression, hate and cruelty. However, the demands of making a theoretical distinction between these themes, although connected, is stressed. Above all, an integral perspective combining different scientific disciplines is aimed at.
