Questions raised by a reasoned action approach: comment on Ogden (2003)
Article Abstract:
J. Ogden's critique of social cognition or reasoned action models identifies three conceptual flaws in the models, and raises concerns about their use in health psychology. Each of the three assertions is discussed and rejected, with the aim of reassuring researchers using reasoned action models in the field of health.
