Based on the theory of planned behavior, an extention of Ajzen & Fishbein's theory of reasoned action, was tested in the context of blood-donating behavior. Beliefs, attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and intention regarding donating blood were obtained from 335 male and female college students. The results were evaluated by means of hierarchical regression analyses. As expected, intention were best predicted as a function of attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control(R=0.74); while donating behavior was shown to be predicted as a function of intention. Subsequent analysis revealed that donators and nondonators were shown to differ significantly on specific beliefs and consequences of donating. Implications for use of this knowledge by blood drive offcials in developing relevant interventions to enhance blood-donating behavior are disscussed. |
