Proposed Theoretical Framework In The Theory Of Behavior
IV. Proposed Theoretical Framework
Although the theory of planned behavior has been applied in various studies in different context, still there were issues raised by different authors. Perhaps, the reason is that human behavior is very complex and difficult to explain because of the uniqueness of the human person. The new framework differs in terms of adding the personality as moderating factor. This is also the critical issue that may have an effect on the different beliefs of people.

With a higher level of neuroticism, people tend to be more reactive and bothered that leads them to become unstable, anxious, unpredictable, and depressed. With this regard, people with high level of neuroticism may not have clear thinking in making decisions. On the other hand, extraversion is a dimension concern about the character of a person. These extraverts are more talkative and outgoing person, while introverts are quite, reserved, and independent Costa and McCrae (1995). Extraverts are more easily to accept change, while introverts struggle to adopt change. Furthermore, extraverts make the decision more quickly than introverts, who reflects first before making any move. Moreover, according to Howard and Howard (1995), those who are in the middle dimension or ambiverts are flexible which sometimes called player-coach. Openness to experience measures the variability of depth and interest of a person according to Howard and Howard (1995). Additionally, people who are more open have wide interests,
