TL;DR
A model is proposed that implies that planning evoked by the formation of an implementation intention is related to behavioral intention and perceived behavioral control, whereas in accordance with the theory of planned behavior, behavioral intention isrelated to attitude and perceived Behavioral control.
Abstract
A model is proposed that implies that planning evoked by the formation of an implementation intention is related to behavioral intention and perceived behavioral control, whereas in accordance with the theory of planned behavior, behavioral intention is related to attitude and perceived behavioral control. Measures of attitude toward the behavior, perceived behavioral control, behavioral intention, and planning were constructed from 192 undergraduates' ratings of descriptions of two fictitious situations in which a target behavior was varied with respect to benefit and actual behavioral control. Structural equation modeling yielded an acceptable fit of the proposed model.

There appears to be general agreement among social psychologists that most human behavior is goal-directed (e. g., Heider, 1958 ; Lewin, 1951), and human social behavior can best be described as following along lines of more or less well-formulated plans.

This chapter presents a review of applications of structural equation modeling (SEM) published in psychological research journals in recent years and focuses first on the variety of research designs and substantive issues to which SEM can be applied productively.

Results supported Gollwitzer's contention that goal intentions that have been supplemented by implementation intentions concerning where and when the behavior is to be performed are more likely to be enacted and reduced the capacity of past behavior to predict future behavior.

It is suggested that the difference between choice and no choice is that the intention is self-generated, and no differences in mail-back rates were observed in Studies 2 and 3 between a difficult and easy choice condition.
