In step 3, theoretical foundations and empirically evaluated methods and strategies for behaviour change are assessed.
Information about psychological values and self-reported measures (BMI, physical activity, health-related quality of life, compliance with the national guidelines for physical activity, self-reported physical condition and psychological conditions towards behaviour change) are assessed at baseline and at the time of motivational counselling.
In the course of up to 50 days after the first injection, pain-related behaviour and inflammatory changes were assessed in these animals, including measures of primary and secondary hyperalgesia, functional parameters, such as gait and weight bearing analyses, joint swelling and histopathology.
Behaviour change was not assessed.
Data relating to behavioural science theory underpinning the interventions and techniques used in the interventions for behaviour change were also extracted and assessed using published tools (15, 16).
Eighty-two theofies of behaviour and behaviour change were identified.
Such examples of behaviour change were heartening.
Fewer indicators of sexual behaviour change could be assessed among HIV-positive individuals due to small sample sizes, and VCT use was not significantly associated with changes in any of these in crude or adjusted analyses (Tables 5 and 6).
The two groups will be compared on the level of re-consultation with the practice and for certain prescription items (see 'Follow-up') in the 12 months after the index consultation, and the association between contact with trained practitioners and positive behaviour change will be assessed.
30 Third, because changes in putative mediators and changes in behaviour were assessed over the same time period, we cannot be certain if changes in mediators led to changes in physical activity or vice versa.
