Principles derived from neuroscience research emphasise massing of practice, behavioural relevance of the training, and focusing of communicative actions on the patients' needs and possibilities.
We have discussed the principles of massed practice, behavioural relevance, and language-action linkage, and focusing language usage on the communicative needs of the patient by application of constraints.
To ensure such changes in communication culture, communication training must encourage trainees to take heed of the perceptions of patients and their families [ 51], thus enhancing their perceptual skills within the communication process rather than simply relying on practicing behavioural skills [ 52].
Behavioural interventions were mainly mixed models based on clinical practice guidelines: behavioural therapy, the motivational interview proposed by Miller and Rollnich, 39 and the transtheoretical model of change.
Additional practice and behavioural questions explored whether participants had engaged in any heart-friendly behaviour in the previous year and for what reason.
In addition, computer assisted learning increased their confidence in their ability to put the research evidence into practice (perceived behavioural control), while audit and feedback increased their knowledge of the research evidence.
The study by Maher and colleagues includes the first evidence that, apart from quantity and frequency of practice and behavioural relevance, the third therapy principle, focusing, has a beneficial effect of its own.
It also evaluates their views relating to responsible gambling practices and behavioural factors.
In terms of player views in relation to responsible gambling practices and behavioural factors both self-exclusion and self-help; and game design are identified as the key factors.
The Colon Cancer Screening Behaviours Survey consists of 84 items that assess: (1) CRC screening practices and behavioural outcomes; (2) six scales that measure perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, self-efficacy, and subjective norm from existing instruments; and, (3) relevant socio-demographics for SA populations [3].
Culture has been defined as a "sharing of values, beliefs, practices and behavioural norms within a specific group of people giving them a common identity" (p.4) [ 1].
