“…Models and theories of health behavior change abound (for reviews, see Nieuwenhuijsen et al 2006;Clark & Houle 2009;Ravensloot et al 2011). The transtheoretical model of behavior change (Prochaska & DiClemente 1983) focuses on a person's readiness to change in adopting and maintaining healthy behaviors.…”

The majority of the sample was in the action stage. The construct, concurrent, and predictive validity of the stages-of-change model were good. The stages-of-change model has some validity in the rehabilitation of adults with hearing impairment. The data support that change might be better represented on a continuum rather than by movement from one step to the next. Of all the measures, the precontemplation stage score had the best concurrent and predictive validity. Therefore, further research should focus on addressing the precontemplation stage with a measure suitable for clinical use.

“…Ravesloot et al suggests that a sense of comprehensibility, manageability, and meaningfulness might be important constructs in connecting behavior change theories with participation as defined by the ICF (39). Doble’s conceptualization of meaningful occupation suggests that a person’s subjective experiences while engaging in an activity are influenced by the extent to which he or she feels a sense of accomplishment, agency/control, companionship, affirmation, pleasure, renewal, and coherence (40).…”

Objective To explore the associations between impairments, self-management self-efficacy, self-management behaviors, and environmental factors and their role in predicting participation in meaningful activities among people with multiple sclerosis. Design Online cross-sectional survey. Subjects/patients Randomly selected individuals (n = 335) from a large multiple sclerosis patient registry. Methods Participation in activities that are meaningful to the individual was measured with Community Participation Indicators (CPI), the dependent variable. Independent variables included symptom severity, activities of daily living limitations, cognitive problems, stages of change for physical activity, nutritional behaviors, self-efficacy, and environmental barriers. A backwards selection regression analysis was used to compare the relative contributions of independent variables in predicting the CPI. A path analysis was conducted to explore the associations between independent variables and their direct and indirect effects on the CPI. Results The final regression model included self-management self-efficacy (β = 0.12), environmental barriers (β = −0.16), cognitive problems (β = −0.22), and stages of change for physical activity (β = 0.12). Path analysis indicated that impairments and environmental barriers might negatively influence self-management self-efficacy. Self-management self-efficacy might have indirect effects on the CPI via engagement in self-management behaviors. Conclusion Future research should explore whether interventions that promote self-management self-efficacy can facilitate participation in meaningful activities.

“…Children with disabilities often have a reduced self-concept around their athletic ability [71], particularly females [72], so health promotion activities need to take this into account. If children are using their non-disabled peers as their 'social norm', it could lead to frustration and feelings of inadequacy, which are unlikely to lead to lasting behaviour change [73]. Bringing the child into the 'here and now' and discussing their expectations for themselves may help them to develop sustainable activities that impact positively upon their fitness, independence and identity [48,53,74].…”
