Resumo (PT): The Theory of Planned Behavior studies the decision-making mechanisms of individuals. We propose the Bayesian-Nash Equilibria as one, of many, possible mechanisms of transforming human intentions in behavior. This process corresponds to the best strategic individual decision taking in account the collective response. We built a game theoretical model to understand the role of leaders in decision-making of individuals or groups. We study the characteristics of the leaders that can have a positive or negative influence over others behavioral decisions.
