Because he lives in the fraternity house, Carl finds it hard to eat a low-fat diet since his housemates think such a diet is unmanly. According to the theory of planned behavior, Carl's interpretation of his fraternity brothers' views and his failure to eat what he knows is a healthier diet is being influenced by:

Subjective norm.

Explanation:

The theory of planned behavior seeks to explain any health behavior over which the individual has control. It believes that behavior is influenced by a number of factors such as pressure from family or society, the belief that changing that behavior will be easy or difficult, the belief in one's own capacity to do it etc.

According to this theory, there are six constructs that represent a person's actual control of a certain behavior. One of those constructs is called subjective norm. It refers to the person's belief concerning whether or not that behavior is approved by others. If a person believes people who are important to him do not want him to engage in a certain behavior, he will be less likely to do it. That is Carl's situation. His lack of conviction concerning his diet comes from a subjective norm.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
