Transtheoretical Model & Stages of Change

preparation; action

Self-liberation is between which two phases of change

Contemplation; preparation

Self-reevaluation is between which two phases of change

Social Cognitive Theory

Theory that proposed that behavior is more strongly mediated by cognitive processes that occur through observation of social modeling

Theory of Reasoned Action

Theory that states people are more likely to do something if they plan or aim to do it than if they do not

Precontemplation; contemplation

consciousness raising, dramatic relief, and environmental reevaluation are between which two phases of change?

Action; Maintenance

Counter conditioning, helping relationships, reinforced management, and stimulus control are between which two phases of change?

Counter conditioning

Learning healthier behaviors that can substitute for problem behaviors

Transtheoretical Model

Model that states that behavior change is a process that occurs in stages

Health Belief Model

Model where individual beliefs/perceptions determine behavior

Stage Models

Models that seek to explain/understand behavior by looking at the steps along the way

Self liberation

Processes of change: Belief that one can change and the commitment/re-commitment to act on that belief

Environmental Reevaluation

Processes of change: Cognitive and affective assessment of how the presence or absence of behavior affects one's social environment

Self reevaluation

Processes of change: Cognitive and affective reassessment of one's self-image with or without unhealthy behavior

Consciousness Raising

Processes of change: Increase awareness about causes, consequences, and cures for a problem behavior

Decisional Balance

Processes of change: Individual's weighing of the pros and cons of changing

Stimulus control

Processes of change: Removing cues for unhealthy habits and adding prompts for healthier alternatives

Reinforcement management

Processes of change: Rewarding oneself or being rewarded by others for making progress

Temptation

Processes of change: The converse of self-efficacy ; the intensity of urges to engage in an unhealthy behavior when in difficult situations

Helping relationships

Processes of change: caring, trust, openness, and acceptance as well as support from others for healthy behavior change

Social liberation

Processes of change: increase in healthy social opportunities or alternatives

Dramatic relief

Processes of change: increasing positive or negative emotions to motivate taking appropriate actions

Self efficacy

Processes of change: situation-specific confidence that one can cope with high-risk situations without relapsing to one's former behavior

Precontemplation; contemplation; preparation; action; maintenance; termination

10; 6

According to the transtheoretical model, there are _________ processes of change and ________ stages of change

False (typically are not in a linear manner)

T/F: Processes of change are typically in a linear manner

Action

Stages of change: Changed over behavior for less than 6 months

Maintenance

Stages of change: Changed over behavior for more than 6 months

Preparation

Stages of change: Intends to take action within the next 30 days and has taken some behavioral steps in this direction

Contemplation

Stages of change: Intends to take action within the next 6 months

Pre-contemplation

Stages of change: No intention to take action within the next 6 months

Termination

Stages of change: No temptation to relapse and 100% confidence
