Using the Theory of Planned Behavior to predict information- and support-seeking on Facebook in people with endometriosis

Participants were more likely to have intentions to use Facebook for endometriosis support and information if they held favorable attitudes and had done so in the past. Intentions and past behavior also predicted subsequent behavior. Health providers wanting to facilitate education and peer support on Facebook for people with endometriosis might consider targeting those already on the platform and encouraging positive views towards its use for this purpose.
