The phrase "a given behaviour" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a specific behavior that has been previously mentioned or is understood in the context.
Example: "In this study, we will analyze the effects of rewards on a given behaviour in children."
Alternatives: "a specific behavior" or "a particular behavior".
This theory provides a theoretical account of the way in which attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioural control combine to predict a given behavioural intention (decision-making) [ 26] and in turn, a given behaviour [ 27].
Specifically, the theory of planned behaviour illustrates that intention to engage in a given behaviour is dependent upon attitude towards the behaviour, perceived behavioural control, subjective norm and environmental possibilities (Côté et al. 2012).
This prediction can be likened to the postulate by Ajzen (2011) in his theory of planned behaviour that perceived behavioural control is a predictor of intention to engage in a given behaviour.
The TPB proposes that intention to perform a given behaviour is shaped by a person's attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control relating to that behaviour and gives clear guidance on how to operationalise these constructs.
According to the DTPB perceived behavioural control refers to individuals' perceptions of their ability to accomplish a given behaviour and it is influenced by the availability of skills, resources, and opportunities that influence adoption of technologies in teaching.
Perceived behavioural control which constitutes the perceived ease or difficulty of performing a given behaviour could comprise the possession and ability to apply the relevant research and related skills and boundary spanning skills for successful research collaboration (Hughes et al. 2011; Hughes and Kitson 2012).
An example of coding for an information giving behaviour is shown in Table 1 and a-wrap> process variable is shown in Table 2-wrap>.
(Glynn et al., 2009) However, as shown in Table 1, HIV is much less uniformly distributed in the population and much less common, so the risk of a woman acquiring HIV depends less directly on her own or her partner's behaviour, and more on the local prevalence (and the probability that a given risk behaviour will lead to exposure to a partner with HIV infection), and on chance.
Previous research has shown that this causal relationship is not identifiable in the absence of full information concerning both the choice of friends and the proclivity to engage in a given health behaviour [ 20, 22].
However, we are not able to make causal inferences regarding the transmission of health behaviours between peers in this study as this causal relationship is not identifiable in the absence of full information concerning both the choice of friends and the proclivity to engage in a given health behaviour [ 20- 22].
Multiple cues may also interact with each other (intersignal interaction hypothesis; Hebets & Papaj 2005) together providing new information for prey and consequently modifying or intensifying a given antipredator behaviour (for classic prey predator interactions: Smith & Belk 2001; Wisenden et al. 2003; Amo et al. 2004; Cooper 2009).
