behavior. This TBP posits that attitude toward the behavior, subject we warm, and perceived
behavioral control influence behavioral intention. At assume that individual act rationally, according
to their attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control these factors are necessarily
actively or consciously considered during decision-making but form the backdrop for the decision-
making process.

to research despite being given less importance. Research, for that matter, starts with and ends
with theory. Theory helps researchers to gain an overall understanding of the concepts involved and
concludes with theory that gives sanctum sanctorum to any kind of research, in any field of study. It
is being said that research without theory is like a human body without flesh - it is only a skeleton
having bones without flesh. It can be inferred that theory gives beauty to research. It entices the
people towards research and to see the research in to and its wholesomeness. Skeleton can never
be a beauty, it is only a structure of bones. It is in this context, it is insisted that theory paves and
leads the way to the noble thought process of conception and conviction in the outcomes of
research. Theory is the soul of research. It is also being insisted and reiterated by thinkers that the
theory helps to see the forest instead of a single tree. Henceforth, the importance of theory, as part
