Study Notes
Theories and Models of Behaviour Change
- Theories provide a framework for understanding and changing behaviour.
- Theories include principles, constructs, and variables.
- They are used to design and implement interventions to change behaviour.
Examples of Theories
- Cognitive Behavioural Theory
- Health Belief Model
- Social Learning Theory
- Transtheoretical Model & Stages of Change
Stages of Change
- Precontemplation: Not considering change
- Contemplation: Thinking about change
- Preparation: Planning for change
- Action: Making changes
- Maintenance: Sustaining changes
- Relapse: Returning to old behaviour
Strategies for Behaviour Change
- Motivational Interviewing: A client-centred method to help people explore and resolve ambivalence
- Goal Setting: SMART goals are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound
- Self Monitoring: Tracking behaviour to increase awareness and identify patterns
- Problem Solving: Identifying barriers and developing solutions
- Social Support: Enlisting the help of family, friends, or others
- Stress Management: Techniques to reduce stress, such as exercise, relaxation, and breathing exercises
- Stimulus Control: Identifying and modifying triggers for unhealthy behaviour
- Cognitive Restructuring: Challenging negative thoughts and beliefs
- Relapse Prevention: Planning for and managing setbacks
- Reward and Contingency Management: Reinforcing positive behaviour
Example from Literature
- Aim: Evaluate the impact of a vegetable app on children's liking and intake of vegetables.
- Research Design: Randomized Controlled Trial
- Participants: Children aged 3-6 years old, in preschool/primary schools in West Midlands, UK
- Intervention: Vegetable Maths Masters App
- Control: Turtle Maths App
- Assessments: Food fussiness, likeness, hunger
- Outcome Measurements: Changes in liking and intake of vegetables
