This study aimed to examine the potential of the Theory of Planned Behavior to predict moral behavior in primary school physical education classes. Primary school children (N=611) completed a questionnaire including the Theory of Planned Behavior variables. Also, 21 teachers filled in an adapted version of Horrocks' Prosocial Play Behavior Inventory which assesses five moral behavior facets. Hierarchical regression analysis showed that attitudes toward moral behavior and perceived behavioral control were significant predictors of intention towards moral behavior (54%). Intention and perceived behavioral control predicted teacher-reported moral behavior (41%). The present results indicated that the theory provides a valuable framework for study of primary school children's moral behavior.
本研究旨在检验计划行为理论预测小学体育课中道德行为的潜力。小学生(N = 611)完成了一份包含计划行为理论变量的问卷。此外,21名教师填写了霍罗克斯亲社会游戏行为量表的改编版,该量表评估五个道德行为方面。分层回归分析表明,对道德行为的态度和感知行为控制是道德行为意图的重要预测因素(54%)。意图和感知行为控制预测了教师报告的道德行为(41%)。目前的结果表明,该理论为研究小学生的道德行为提供了一个有价值的框架。
