As perceived benefit increased, perceived disability (p<.01) and motivation for action decreased. The lower the perceived disability, the lower the motivation for the action (p<.05). Perceived susceptibility (p<.01), perceived severity(p<.05), and motivation for action (p<.05) were significantly correlated to handwashing performance.
