Table 2.
Theory of planned behavior scale constructs used to measure intention to seek MTMS (N = 133).
| Construct | No. of Items Retained (No. of Initial Items) | Mean a | Standard Deviation a | Lowest Individual Score | Highest Individual Score | Cronbach’s Alpha |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Attitude | 3 (5) | 4.04 | 0.97 | 1.00 | 5.00 | 0.88 |
| Subjective norm | 3 (4) | 3.77 | 0.91 | 1.00 | 5.00 | 0.88 |
| Perceived behavioral control | 5 (5) | 3.75 | 0.93 | 1.00 | 5.00 | 0.93 |
| Intention | 5 (5) | 3.96 | 0.94 | 1.00 | 5.00 | 0.93 |
a. Individual items were measured on a Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree through 5 = strongly agree). Higher scores signify more positive attitudes, more favorable subjective norm, more perceived behavioral control and stronger intention to seek MTMS.
