“…In Malaysia, the TTM has been translated and validated to be used for the cessation of smoking [16,17]. The TTM application in Malaysia has also been studied for the reduction of body weight [18] and physical activity levels in women [19].…”

Brain Breaks Physical Activity Solutions (BBPAS) is a web-based structured physical activity (PA) video that is specifically designed for school settings and can stimulate a student’s health and learning. The purpose of this study is to measure the effect of BBPAS on the stages of change, decisional balance, processes of change, self-efficacy and leisure-time exercise among Malay ethnic primary school children. A validated Malay version of three of the five constructs was derived with sound validity and was used in the present study. A total of 159 male and 163 female children aged 10 to 11 years old, mean (SD) = 10.53 (0.50), were recruited from two schools in Kelantan, Malaysia. Purposive sampling was used to divide the children into intervention (n = 177) and control (n = 145) groups. Children in the intervention group underwent BBPAS activity for an accumulated 30 min per week, while children in the control group were not involved in the BBPAS intervention. Mixed factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to examine the effect of BBPAS on the study variables. A mixed ANOVA showed significant changes (time effect) on cognitive process, F(1, 320) = 5.768, p-value = 0.017; behavioural process, F(1, 313) = 5.736, p-value = 0.017; and internal feeling, F(1, 312) = 6.050, p-value = 0.014. There was also a significant difference between groups on cons, F(1, 316) = 7.504, p-value = 0.007. A significant interaction effect was observed for stages of change, F(1, 319) = 7.861, p-value = 0.005; pros, F(1, 316) = 31.311, p-value = 0.001; internal feeling, F(1, 312) = 4.692, p-value = 0.031; and behavioural process, F(1, 313) = 7.312, p-value = 0.007. In conclusion, BBPAS was successful in improving four of the five constructs, and thus, should be recommended to be used in schools throughout Malaysia.

“…Van et al 35 reported a significant correlation between smokers' social environment and successful SC. Workplace SC programs can assist smokers with lower QS motivation levels to QS and prevent relapses 36 . Therefore, tobacco control campaigns in public places and the creation of supportive SC environments are crucial for people who are ready to QS.…”

INTRODUCTION Smoking cessation (SC) clinics are a professional SC services in China. However, studies comparing the characteristics and SC rates of smoking populations in SC clinics with those using mobile SC programs are limited. We compared smokers' characteristics, 3-month SC rates, and the factors influencing 3-month SC success, between a large hospital SC clinic and a WeChat SC miniprogram. METHODS Between January and November 2021, 384 participants voluntarily enrolled in either the hospital SC clinic (Group A: n=243) or the WeChat SC miniprogram (Group B: n=141). Both groups underwent a 3-month SC intervention, and their SC status was monitored at 24 hours, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after quitting. SC rate was defined as the self-reported rate of continuous SC. RESULTS The 3-month SC rate was higher in Group A (42.4%) than in Group B (24.8%). Participants with middle school education had a lower likelihood of SC success than those with primary school or lower (p=0.014). Employees in the enterprise/business/services industries were more likely to have SC success than farmers (p=0.013). Participants with SC difficulty scores of 0-60 were more successful than those with scores >60 (p=0.001, p=0.000, respectively). Participants who quit smoking due to their illness, or other reasons, had a higher likelihood of SC success than those who quit due to concerns about their own and their family's health (p=0.006, p=0.098, respectively). While the likelihood of SC success was lower in those who quit because of the influence of their environment than in those who quit due to concerns about their own and their family's health (p=0.057). CONCLUSIONS Both SC clinics and WeChat SC mini-programs achieved satisfactory SC rates. The high accessibility of mobile SC platforms, which save time spent on transportation and medical visits, renders them worth promoting and publicizing as additional SC options for smokers, particularly young smokers.

“…There have been a number of studies carried out in which the distribution of stages for a precise determination of behaviours with increased risk such as smoking was first established [99,100,101,102,103,104]. Researchers were also interested in determining the systematic relationships between the stage the individual was in and the processes of change which they were subjected to [86,87].…”

This chapter will present the health education for the individual or couple in a more comprehensive manner using the transtheoretical model and stages of change and prior determination of his/her health literacy. 2. Methodology A literature review was performed. Literature found with the aid of the information service EBSCOhost using the databases CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature) and MEDLINE was used. The following keywords using Boolean operators (AND, OR) in various combinations were used: healthy sexuality, health education, health promotion communication, midwifery, motivational interviewing, motivation, patient, health behaviour change, theory change, a model of change. To narrow down the search for literature, we chose: the English language, scientific journals, available extracts, available full-length articles and
