Definition

  • The relationship between knowledge, attitudes, skill development, and ultimately the adoption or change of health behaviors is one that is the subject of numerous theoretical models of behavior change. Indeed, having a clear understanding of this relationship is central in the context of heath behavior change interventions, especially in terms of curriculum development and program evaluation.
