This study explored the usefulness of a range of models to predict an evidence-based behaviour -- the placing of fissure sealants. Methods Measures were collected by postal questionnaire from a random sample of general dental practitioners GDPs in Scotland. Outcomes were behavioural simulation scenario decision-making and behavioural intention. Predictor variables were from the Theory of Planned Behaviour TPB Social Cognitive Theory SCT Common Sense Self-regulation Model CS-SRM Operant Learning Theory OLT Implementation Intention II Stage Model and knowledge a non-theoretical construct . Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the predictive value of each theoretical model individually. Significant constructs from all theories were then entered into a cross theory stepwise regression analysis to investigate their combined predictive value Results Behavioural simulation - theory level variance explained was TPB 31 SCT 29 II 7 OLT 30 . Neither CSSRM nor stage explained significant variance. In the cross theory analysis habit OLT timeline acute CS-SRM and outcome expectancy SCT entered the equation together explaining 38 of the variance. Behavioural intention -theory level variance explained was TPB 30 SCT 24 OLT 58 CS-SRM 27 . GDPs in the action
