Why Behavior Change Is Often Difficult:
• Several factors influence a person’s desire to change a health behavior—the person must
1. Know the behavior is associated with a health problem
2. Accept that the behavior increases personal risk for the health problem
3. Recognize that risk-reduction intervention programs exist and can be effective
4. Believe the benefits of the new behavior justify the change in behavior
5. Feel that significant others will be accepting of such changes
Stages of Change:
• Prochaska et al. (1994) identified the following six stages people go through in changing
health behaviors:
 Precontemplation
 Contemplation
 Preparation
 Action
 Maintenance
 Termination
