T76 |
0-331 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The present study aimed to identify the determinants of participation in social distancing behavior among individuals in the context of COVID-19 using an integrated social cognition model that incorporated constructs from the theory of planned behavior with moral norm, anticipated regret, action planning, and self-reported habit. |
T77 |
332-488 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We tested predictions of the proposed model in a prospective correlational study in two separate samples of adults from Australia and the USA, respectively. |
T78 |
489-776 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These countries provide an opportunity to examine the determinants of social distancing because they experienced rapid increases in COVID-19 cases relatively early in the pandemic and introduced public health advice and “lockdown” measures to minimize transmission via social distancing. |
T79 |
777-1002 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In our proposed model (Model 1; Fig. 1), attitude, subjective norm, PBC, moral norm, and anticipated regret were specified as predictors of intention, and intention, PBC, and habit as predictors of social distancing behavior. |
T80 |
1003-1096 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Intention was proposed to mediate the effects of the social cognition constructs on behavior. |
T81 |
1097-1211 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The role of action planning as a mediator and moderator of the intention–behavior relationship was also specified. |
T82 |
1212-1407 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We also specified a second model (Model 2; Fig. 1) in which past social distancing behavior was included as a direct predictor of all constructs in the model, providing a test of its sufficiency. |
T83 |
1408-1691 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Although research demonstrating that social distancing behavior clusters with other health behaviors indicates that application of social cognition theories is viable for this behavior [28], research is needed to verify this contention and the current study contributes to this goal. |
T84 |
1692-1807 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The research may assist in identifying potentially modifiable constructs that relate to social distancing behavior. |
T85 |
1808-1988 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Such information may provide useful information to inform social distancing interventions focused on reducing the spread of COVID-19 and, more broadly, other communicable diseases. |
