Consolidating your Learning
Before you continuing
working through the other three categories of theories discussed
in this module, consider the following questions and contribute
to your Reflective Journal.
Points to
Ponder
To date, the theories explaining the change process in individuals
have mostly been applied to “lifestyle” issues, such
as smoking and diet. Do you see a place for these theories in
addressing broader health determinants? Why/why not?
As was noted in the previous section, a group of behavioural scientists
identified eight conditions, one or more of which must be present
for successful behaviour change. Can you think of any conditions
that are missing from the list?
