我们评估了计划行为理论（TPB）和保护动机理论（PMT）的有效性，以预测来自南非文达的201名青少年的避孕套使用。结果表明，TPB和PMT可以显着预测打算使用避孕套，虽然解释的方差水平是有限的。分层回归分析表明，有相当大的重叠之间。TPB和PMT对避孕套使用意愿的预测作用。在回归分析中，同时使用TPB和PMT变量的主观规范和反应效能呈正相关，打算使用避孕套。结果表明，TPB和PMT是有价值的，在解释非洲青少年打算使用避孕套。TPB明确了社会环境是一个重要的背景因素，而PMT明确了反应效能与安全套使用意愿呈正相关。本研究结果表明，社会认知模型在分析非洲青少年安全套使用意向方面具有一定的价值，但安全套神话等其他因素的作用还有待进一步研究。
We assessed the usefulness of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and protection motivation theory (PMT) to predict intended condom use among 201 adolescents from Venda, South Africa. Results indicated that both the TPB and the PMT could significantly predict intended condom use, although the level of explained variance was limited. Hierarchical regression analysis indicated that there was considerable overlap between. the TPB and the PMT in predicting condom use intention. In the regression analysis that used both the TPB and the PMT variables subjective norms and response efficacy were positively related to intended condom use. The results indicated that both the TPB and the PMT were valuable in explaining intended condom use among African adolescents. The TPB made clear that the social environment is an important contextual factor, whereas the PMT made clear that response efficacy is positively related to condom use intention. The results of this study indicated that social cognition models have some value in the analysis of condom use intention of African adolescents, but the role of other factors like myths about condoms should be further examined.
