Performance Objective |
Theory |
Determinants |
|
|
||
|
1. People decide to prevent weight gain. |
PAPM [22] |
- Awareness. - Knowledge - Risk-perception [23] |
|
|
||
|
TPB [17] |
- Attitude - Perceived Behavioural Control |
|
|
|
||
|
2. People choose at least one small change in DI or PA (goal setting). |
PAPM |
- Awareness |
|
|
||
|
TPB |
- Attitude/preferences [33] - Subjective norm (FGI), [34,35] - Goal-efficacy (FGI) |
|
|
|
||
|
SDT [36] |
- Goal commitment. |
|
|
|
||
|
3. People prepare strategies to establish how they will make their chosen behaviour change |
HAPA [37] |
- Action self-efficacy [38-40] - Awareness of cues to action |
|
|
||
|
TPB |
- Social influence [41] |
|
|
|
||
|
4. People change their DI or PA (goal striving). |
HAPA |
- Action self-efficacy [42] - Coping self-efficacy (FGI) |
|
|
||
|
RPT [20] |
- Awareness of barriers/high risk situations - Coping self-efficacy [20] |
|
|
|
||
|
SRT [16] |
- Awareness of standards (their self-chosen change) - Monitoring (self-regulation effort) |
|
|
|
||
|
5. People evaluate their behaviour change and its effect on body weight. |
SRT (also for 5a, 5b and 5c) |
- Awareness of personal weight standards - Skills |
|
|
||
|
a. if successful, they may maintain or adapt their goal (towards a higher goal). |
HAPA |
- Task self-efficacy |
|
|
||
|
SDT |
Commitment |
|
|
|
||
|
b. If unsuccessful, they go back to previous stages (#5) and revise their strategies for them |
RPT |
- Recovery self-efficacy [43] |
|
|
||
|
SDT |
- Commitment |
|
|
|
||
|
TPB |
- Awareness |
|
|
|
||
|
c. if unsuccessful, they may also choose a new behavioural goal (#2) |
||
|
|
||
|
FGI = information derived from Focus Group Interviews, GST = Goal Setting Theory, HAPA = Health Action Process Approach, PAPM = Precaution Adoption Process Model, RPT = Relapse Prevention Theory, TPB = Theory of Planned Behaviour, SDT = Self determination Theory, SRT - Self-Regulation Theory. |
