Transtheoretical Model Originators of the Transtheoretical Model The transtheoretical model was devised in the 1980s by authors, James Prochaska and Carlo DiClemente. This model was developed to explain the concepts and ideas behind how a person attempts to make changes related to addictive behaviors(Hayden, 2013). The transtheoretical model explains a person’s experience with changing a behavior over a period of at least six months. After all, change is not a single event; it is a challenging process
The Transtheoretical model was created in the 1983, and is used for changing behaviors. It has helped many people develop successful interventions which then promote a healthy behavior change. It uses five/six stages of change, pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, maintenance and if the behavior is truly changed, termination. There also ten cognitive and behavioral variables, known as the processes of change that are sometimes also included. In the precontemplation stage (not ready)
Transtheoretical model (TTM) is a comprehensive framework that has been used to understand behavior change. TTT emerged from a comparative analysis of leading psychotherapy and behavior change theories by Pochaska and colleagues. TTM was developed and introduced in 1983 by Pochaska and DiClemente. TTM is a model of intentional change that focuses of decision making of individuals. TTM consists of four constructs which are five (5) stages of change, (10) processes of change, decisional balance, and
The Transtheoretical Model (TTM) was developed by Prochaska and DiClemente in 1983 (Lenio) and is currently one of the most widely used models in the study of health behavior change (Contento). TTM suggests that self change in behavior moves through five different stages known as the Stages of Change. The Stages of Change are based upon the individual’s readiness to change. Behavioral change is an ongoing process. TTM helps guide people through the process of change using different stages depending
individuals’ enthusiasm to modify behaviors. As per Edwards et al. (1999), the main assumption of the Transtheoretical Model (TM) is that individuals are not fully equipped to proceed changing their behaviors at a certain time. Existing diabetes-management is relied on an understood supposition that who attending a diabetes education program are willing to change.
