V. Conclusion
5.2 Implications
The theory of planned behavior (TPB) has been developed over 20 years and generally applied to many fields, such as in depth individual discussions and review some constructs of basic theories, health issues (sports, cancer, weight losing and diet control, and AIDS prevention by using condom), integration with the technology acceptance model (TAM) and discussion of technology trend and its application, and combination with physical activity related to human health and sports. The study enables future researchers to understand the theory of planned behavior (TPB) more quickly, and to focus on the direction or domain they want to follow, and to find the key or core paper. Furthermore, future researchers can introduce the theory to every aspects of practice and understand how to integrate different theories and constructs.
In the future, researchers may help dealing with the following the category and finding the subject and direction they need. Moreover, researchers can have a better
understanding of the theory planned behavior and its trend. This research is the first article to use co-citation analysis in the theory of planned behavior (TPB), and provides a thorough summary of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) through co-citation analysis and multivariate analysis. Therefore, the result can be used as a stepping stone for further studies of the theory of planned behavior (TPB). This study give two important issues in 21st century which are technology and exercises with human that influence all of the academic community.
There may also be some hidden problems of these articles which do not appear in the abstract or overview on the surface. The dynamic nature of citation which counts on ISI Web of Knowledge might affect the result. This study uses high cited times articles, but there may be some loss of other articles in low cited times, like recently articles from 2004 to 2008. However, we believe this effect is minor or insignificant.
Future researchers can use the result of this article as a base to extend or integrate other theories and research methods. Based on this study, more innovative research can be conducted and applied to other different research fields.
