I am working on a paper and require applications of the theory of planned behaviour, specifically those used in organizational settings or Human Resource Management contexts.

So far the feedback has been excellent, thank you. More sources welcome!

There are another theory called Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). Its argue that there are environmental factors control the human intentions when they are planing to make a decision.
Once again thank you for the sources provided, they have been very useful.

My Phd student has used this theory on his research regarding HRM and Change Management.. well constructed and validated.
I used the TPB in HRM and technology contexts

Hello Daryn:
I have one more suggestion for you:
Prestholdt, P. H., Lane, I. M., and Mathews, R. C. (1987). Nurse Turnover as Reasoned Action: Development of a Process Model. Journal of Applied Psychology, 22, 221-227.
As it happens, I worked on this study in a small way. I was an undergraduate research assistant when the data were collected. Perry Prestholdt was my favorite professor at Louisiana State University -- a truly great person!

Hello Russell,
Looks like the professor became a role model. I appreciate the reference.
Thx, Daryn
The Journal of Applied Social Psychology has a number of studies using TPB in HRM and other areas.
