Summer School 2012
The Theory of Planned Behaviour Meets Structural Equation Modelling
Prof.Dr.IcekAjzen&Prof.Dr.PeterSchmidt
July 16 - 20
Since its introduction 26 years ago, the theory of planned be- haviour (TPB) has become one of the most frequently cited and influential models for the prediction of human social behaviour. The TPB emphasizes that human behaviour is governed not only by per-sonal attitudes, but also by social pressure and a sense of control.
The scientific objective of the summer school is to present the theoretical foundations of TPB, the operationalization of its variables, the strategies to develop an intervention designed to change human behaviours based on the results from a study using the TPB. Finally, the participants will learn how to use structural equation modelling, a statistical technique for testing and estimating causal relations using a combination of statistical data and qualitative causal assumptions, to test different hypotheses underlying the TPB.
This summer school is of interest to PhD and Master students motivated in applying the theory of planned behaviour as well as in learning more about the methodological implications of structural equation modelling and meta-analysis for applied research. It will be facilitated by the author of the TPB, Prof. Dr. Icek Ajzen from the University of Massachusetts, USA, and Prof. Dr. Peter Schmidt from the University of Giessen, Germany, an expert in the application of structural equation analyses, using the MPlus software.
The participants will have the opportunity to discuss their own research topic with Prof. Dr. Ajzen and Prof. Dr. Schmidt. The summer school will have an international scope with participants from different countries.
