The Theory of Planned Behavior as a model of reasoning about fertility decisions

KLOBAS, JANE
2011

Abstract

In this response to criticism of use of the theory of planned behavior in fertility research, the author identifies the situations in which the TPB is and is not appropriate for study of human fertility decisions and shows that the theory is not limited to static or short-term analyses, but can be used to model the dynamics of changes in beliefs and cognitions over time. This paper also shows how the micro-level TPB has been embedded by the author and colleagues in the REPRO project in macro-level social and economic contexts.
