This score measures the stages of change: precontemplation (not intending to change behaviour), contemplation (considering changing behaviour), preparation (making small changes in behaviour), action (actively engaging in behaviour change) and maintenance (sustaining the behaviour change over time).
The model proposes that people pass through a series of progressively more committed stages in the course of changing a health-related behavior: Precontemplation (not even thinking about the target behavior), Contemplation (currently not doing the behavior, but considering the adoption of the behavior), Action (beginning to adopt the behavior), and Maintenance (sustaining the behavior over time).
