(2011). Motivational interviewing: A behavioral counseling intervention for the family medicine provider. Family Medicine, 43(8): 582-585. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This study investigated whether adult participants who receive a brief motivational interviewing (MI) intervention delivered by a family medicine provider (family nurse practitioner or family medicine resident [MD]) progress to the next stage of change and increase physical activity. METHOD: A pilot study that included enrollment of 30 patients who failed usual care counseling to increase physical activity by their family medicine provider. Each study participant received three MI sessions over a 3-month period and an initial face-to-face session followed by two telephone counseling sessions scheduled approximately a month apart. Stages of Change were measured by the Exercise Stages of Change Short Form, and physical activity was measured using the Community Healthy Activities Model Program (CHAMPS) activities questionnaire. RESULTS: Among the study participants, 80% (n=24) progressed to the next stage of change. Study participants also increased activity from baseline to completion. CONCLUSIONS: MI counseling offers promise as a valuable intervention that can be used by family medicine providers to address patients’ ambivalence to promote advancement through the stages of change and increase physical activity in the overweight patients. *Ajzen I, & Fishbein M. (1980). Understanding attitudes and predicting social behavior. Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall. CONCEPT OF PROBLEM DEVELOPMENT: A person's intention is a function of his/her attitude toward the behavior and the perception of the social pressures put on him/her to perform or not to perform the behavior (also known as the "subjective norm"). In order to define and measure behavior, one should determine whether the interest is in the behaviors or the outcomes of those behaviors. CONCEPT OF CHANGE: Any behavior is described as having the following four elements: the action, the target at which the action is directed, the context in which it occurs, and the time at which it is performed. Behaviors have been found to be predictable from the intentions of individuals. However, unlike behaviors, outcomes are not completely under a person's volitional control. To be able to predict outcome, intentions should be measured, behaviors should be identified, and other factors that can potentially control the outcome must be addressed. The theory of reasoned action offers a conceptual understanding of attitudes and provides theoretical measures for predicting behaviors and outcomes of those behaviors. It has shown to be applicable to understanding and predicting areas of weight loss, women's occupational orientations, family planning behaviors, consumer behavior, voting in American and British elections, and the behavior of alcoholics. INTERVENTIONS: Not specifically defined. 3 Allsop S. (2007). What is this thing called motivational interviewing? Addiction, 102: 343–345. The authors review what is known about Motivational Interviewing, then pose critical questions: • What theoretical models best help us understand and advance MI? • How do we effectively assess the impact of MI and what does the current body of evidence tell us? • Why, or by what processes, does MI work? • How do we define, operationalize and measure the essence, or spirit, as well as the techniques of MI? • How do we measure reliably and practically the effective application of MI? *Anderson RM, Funnell MM, Butler PM, Arnold MS, Fitzgerald JT, & Feste CC. (1995). Patient empowerment: Results of a randomized controlled trial. Diabetes Care, 18(7): 943-949. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to determine if participation in a patient empowerment program would result in improved psychosocial self-efficacy and attitudes toward diabetes, as well as a reduction in blood glucose levels. DESIGN: This study was conducted as a randomized, wait-listed control group trial. Interventions: The intervention group received a six-session (one session per week) patient empowerment education program; the control group was assigned to a wait-list. At the end of 6 weeks, the control group completed the six-session empowerment program. Six weeks after the program, both groups provided follow-up data RESULTS: The intervention group showed gains over the control group on four of the eight self-efficacy subscales and two of the five diabetes attitude subscales. Also, the intervention group showed a significant reduction in glycoslyated hemoglobin levels. Within groups, analysis of data from all program participants showed sustained improvements in all of the self-efficacy areas and two of the five diabetes attitude subscales and a modelst improvement in blood glucose levels. CONCLUSIONS: This study indicated that patient empowerment is an effective approach to developing educational interventions for addressing the psychosocial aspects of living with diabetes. Furthermore, patient empowerment is conducive to improving blood glucose control. In an ideal setting, patient education would address equally blood glucose management and the psychosocial challenges of living with diabetes Apollonio DE, & Malone RE. (2009). Turning negative into positive: Public health mass media campaigns and negative advertising. Health Education Research, 24(3): 483-495. Literature suggests that negative advertising is an effective way to encourage behavioral changes, but it has enjoyed limited use in public health media campaigns. However, as public health increasingly focuses on non-communicable disease prevention, negative advertising could be more widely applied. This analysis considers an illustrative case from tobacco control. Relying on internal tobacco industry documents, surveys and experimental data and drawing from political advocacy literature, we describe tobacco industry and public health research on the American Legacy Foundations truth campaign, an example of effective negative advertising in the service of public health. The tobacco industry determined that the 4 most effective advertisements run by Legacys truth campaign were negative advertisements. Although the tobacco industrys own research suggested that these negative ads identified and effectively reframed the cigarette as a harmful consumer product rather than focusing solely on tobacco companies, Philip Morris accused Legacy of vilifying it. Public health researchers have demonstrated the effectiveness of the truth campaign in reducing smoking initiation. Research on political advocacy demonstrating the value of negative advertising has rarely been used in the development of public health media campaigns, but negative advertising can effectively communicate certain public health messages and serve to counter corporate disease promotion.

This book brings together leading experts to describe MI applications in the treatment of anxiety, depression, PTSD, suicidal behavior, obsessive-compulsive disorder, eating disorders, gambling addictions, schizophrenia, and dual diagnoses. Also addressed are MI approaches in the criminal justice system. Each chapter provides a concise overview of the disorder or population under discussion; describes how MI has been integrated with standard treatment approaches; illustrates the nuts and bolts of intervention, using vivid clinical examples; and reviews the empirical evidence base. Ashford S, Edmunds J, & French DP. (2010). What is the best way to change self-efficacy to promote lifestyle and recreational physical activity? A systematic review with meta-analysis. British Journal of Health Psychology, 15(1): 265-288. PURPOSE: Increasing self-efficacy is an effective method to increase physical activity. Despite this, the evidence concerning the most effective techniques to increase self-efficacy in physical activity interventions has not been systematically reviewed. The aim of the present research is to systematically gather, and meta-analyze, intervention studies which aimed to increase self-efficacy for physical activity; to estimate the association between intervention techniques used, and change in self-efficacy achieved. METHODS: A systematic database search was conducted for papers reporting lifestyle or recreational physical activity interventions. Published intervention studies explicitly targeting self-efficacy in order to change physical activity behavior in ‘healthy’ adults were eligible for inclusion. RESULTS: The search strategy identified 27 unique physical activity intervention studies, with a total of 5,501 participants. A significant, yet small, relationship between the interventions and changes in self-efficacy was found (mean d =0.16, p <.001). Owing to significant heterogeneity, moderator analyses were conducted, examining the association of changes in self-efficacy with whether or not specific intervention techniques
