Social cognitive drivers of farmer learning behaviour in the student-to-farmer university outreach in Uganda by Kalule, S.W., Sseguya, H., Ongeng, D., Karubanga, G.

“…The results indicate that social outcome expectations (β = 0.227, t = 1.978, P < 0.05), social influence (β = .372, t = 4.448, P < 0.01) and farmers’ formation of intentions (β = .214, t = 3.254, P < 0.01) significantly predict farmer learning behaviour. It is also established that social influence combine with formation of intentions to mediate social outcome expectations in predicting farmer learning behaviour. …”
