Content:
The book presents an integrative theory of hard-to-maintain behaviours, that includes hard-to-reduce or eliminate behaviours like smoking and other drug use, over consumption of food or unsafe sex, and hard-to-sustain behaviours like exercise and sun-safe behaviours. Most of the examples come from the author's work on tobacco smoking, but it is relevant to anyone who is concerned to understand why some forms of desirable behaviour are so hard to achieve, and to those trying to help people change. It also has important implications for public health campaigns and for the development of policy.
Note:
An overview of the theory -- Characteristics of hard to maintain behaviours -- The roles of the operational and executive systems -- Environmental influences : the context of change -- Conceptual influences on change -- The structure of the change process -- Interventions for behaviour change -- Using ceos to advance knowledge.
