An extension of the theory of planned behavior to predict immediate hedonic behaviors and distal benefit behaviors (2011, background): “Although frequency of past behaviour is commonly used to assess habit, it is often criticised, as frequently performing a behaviour does not always result in a habit (Verplanken, 2006).”
Festivals as agents for behaviour change: A study of food festival engagement and subsequent food choices (2015, background): “The limited value of cognitive approaches in explaining food-consumption choices might be rooted in the habitual nature of food-shopping activities and buyers’ time constraints (Goldsmith, Freiden, & Henderson, 1995; Verplanken, 2006).”
Interventions to Break and Create Consumer Habits (2006, background): “To demonstrate that implementation intentions facilitate habit formation, Orbell and Verplanken (2006) asked participants to form a behavioral intention to floss their teeth regularly.”
The Roles of Habit, Self-Efficacy, and Satisfaction in Driving Continued Use of Self-Service Technologies (2013, background): “…prior habit research has typically focused on the roles of past behavior and satisfaction in habit development (Limayem, Hirt, and Cheung 2007; Verplanken 2006), we argue that in the adoption of technological innovations such as SSTs, self-efficacy plays a key role in driving habit because it…”
Does habit weaken the relationship between intention and behaviour? Revisiting the habit‐intention interaction hypothesis (2020, background): “Present-day definitions portray habit as a non-conscious construct (Fleetwood, in press; Gardner, 2015a; Verplanken, 2006).”

Theoretical explanations for maintenance of behaviour change: a systematic review of behaviour theories (2016, background): “Habits Habits are actions that have become automatically triggered by situational cues (Lally, Van Jaarsveld, Potts, & Wardle, 2010; Verplanken, 2006).”
Social psychological factors in lifestyle change and their relevance to policy (2007, background): “Thus, the role of habit and limited volitional control over behaviors that have a cumulative day-to-day impact over many years has been poorly articulated (Verplanken, 2006).”
Procrastination out of Habit? The Role of Impulsive Versus Reflective Media Selection in Procrastinatory Media Use (2018, background): “Once acquired, a media habit can be automatically activated by contextual cues (LaRose, 2010; Naab & Schnauber, 2016; Verplanken, 2006) resulting in an “habitual response” (Wood & Rünger, 2016, p.”
Predicting smoking reduction among adolescents using an extended version of the theory of planned behaviour (2006, background): “However, Verplanken (2006) found that habit operationalised as a mental construct involving features of automaticity, i.e., lack of awareness, difficulty to control and mental efficiency fully mediated the effect of past snacking frequency on later snacking behaviour.”
Repetitive negative thinking as a transdiagnostic process (2008, background): “Verplanken, B. (2006). Beyond frequency: Habit as”
