Abstract
This study aimed to understand the effects on preventive behavior intention to particulate matter by risk perception attitude and anxiety. Also, to expand applicable target and range of RPA model, add anxiety. To measure main variables of RPA model, did a survey with 570 college students. With a data, analyzed by correlation, one-way ANOVA and three-way ANOVA. As a result, perceived risk and efficacy effect on intention to preventive action and information seeking. And an anxiety factor effects on intention to preventive action and information seeking also. And distinguished 4 groups of RPA model, there were meaningful differences between intention to preventive action and information seeking by groups, and a factor of anxiety effects certain groups. As a result, it can suggest how to plan and enforce message on preventive campaign of particulate matter. In follow research, with social psychological factors, it will helpful to identify health activities about particulate matters.
