The Theory of Planned Behaviour has the potential to make an important contribution to our understanding of how organisational factors influence workers’ behaviour and of ways to achieve behaviour change with workers. According to the Theory of Planned Behaviour, intentions, attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control are the most proximal predictors of behaviour. Any distal variables, such as organisational factors, only influence behaviour through the theoretical predictors. Though a substantial body of research has applied the Theory of Planned Behaviour to the organisational setting, no research to-date has examined whether the Theory of Planned Behaviour accounts for the influence of organisational variables on workers’ behaviour. This paper presents the results of a survey of 273 dental hygienists which applied the Theory of Planned Behaviour to the behaviour of assisting their patients to quit smoking. The findings indicated that organisational factors like the presence of a policy and education or training influenced behaviour only through subjective norms and perceived behavioural control. These results inform understanding of the pathways through which organisational factors influence workers’ behaviour. Practical implications of applying the theory to a wide range of work behaviours are highlighted.Item A Capacity Building Process for Women with a History of Child Sexual Abuse(2006) Van Loon, Antonia Margaretha; Kralik, DebbieItem Coaching for a vision for leadership(2009) Bell, Michael; Habel, Sylvia CarmelaItem A cognitive behavioural coaching intervention for the treatment of perfectionism and self-handicapping in a nonclinical population(2007) Kearns, Hugh; Gardiner, Maria Lucille; Forbes, AngusItem Concerns regarding the traditional paradigm for causal research: The unified paradigm and causal research in scientific psychology(2007) Lynd-Stevenson, Robert MackayItem Development and evaluation of an allocation committee to distribute community placements on an equitable basis between universities: Our experience with the University Placement Allocation Committee.(2007) Williams, Brian; Byrne, Stuart; Dolman, Suzanne Rosslyn; Harrison, Michael; Lynd-Stevenson, Robert MackayItem The development of CBT programmes for anger: the role of interventions to promote perspective-taking skills(Cambridge University Press, 2008) Day, Andrew; Howells, Kevin; Mohr, Philip; Schall, Ernest; Gerace, AdamItem Diagnosis and formulation: what should we tell the students?(2010) Carey, Timothy Andrew; Pilgrim, DavidItem Do social networks affect the use of residential aged care among older Australians?(2007) Giles, Lynne Catherine; Glonek, Gary F V; Luszcz, Mary Alice; Andrews, GaryBackground Older people's social networks with family and friends can affect residential aged care use. It remains unclear if there are differences in the effects of specific (with children, other relatives, friends and confidants) and total social networks upon use of low-level residential care and nursing homes. Methods Data were drawn from the Australian Longitudinal Study of Ageing. Six waves of data from 1477 people aged ≥ 70 collected over nine years of follow-up were used. Multinomial logistic regressions of the effects of specific and total social networks on residential care use were carried out. Propensity scores were used in the analyses to adjust for differences in participant's health, demographic and lifestyle characteristics with respect to social networks. Results Higher scores for confidant networks were protective against nursing home use (odds ratio [OR] upper versus lower tertile of confidant networks = 0.50; 95%CI 0.33–0.75). Similarly, a significant effect of upper versus lower total network tertile on nursing home use was observed (OR = 0.62; 95%CI 0.43–0.90). Evidence of an effect of children networks on nursing home use was equivocal. Nursing home use was not predicted by other relatives or friends social networks. Use of lower-level residential care was unrelated to social networks of any type. Social networks of any type did not have a significant effect upon low-level residential care use. Discussion Better confidant and total social networks predict nursing home use in a large cohort of older Australians. Policy needs to reflect the importance of these particular relationships in considering where older people want to live in the later years of life.Item Does ability to engage in joint attention indicate autism severity?(2006) Delinicolas, Erin K; Young, Robyn LouiseItem The early detection of pre-verbal autistic characteristics using autism detection in early childhood (ADEC)(Jessica Kingsley Publishers, 2006) Young, Robyn Louise; Brewer, Neil Douglas; Williamson, Paul Joseph; Partington, Carrie AnnItem The effects of electro-convulsive therapy on the speed of information processing in major depression(2007) Tsourtos, George; Stough, Con; Spong, JoItem Effects of safety behaviour on the maintenance of anxiety and negative belief social anxiety disorder(2009) Sakano, Yuji; Kanai, Yoshihiro; Chen, Junwen; Okajima, Isa
