Subjective Culture and Interpersonal Relations

Theory Summary

"...the likelihood of performing a given behaviour is determined by intentions, habits and facilitating factors.

Intentions are, in turn, viewed as a function of:


  • perceived consequences of performing the behaviour (outcome expectancies)
  • social influences (including norms, roles and the self concept) and
  • emotions"

I was searching for more information about this theory after reading Fishbein's comment elsewhere, so it was too shallow for my purposes. Thanks anyway.
