Treatment-enhanced paired action contributes substantially to change across multiple health behaviors: secondary analyses of five randomized trials

Abstract: The dominant paradigm of changing multiple health behaviors (MHBs) is based on treating, assessing, and studying each behavior separately. This study focused on individuals with co-occurring baseline health-risk behavior pairs and described whether they changed over time on both or only one of the behaviors within each pair. Data from five randomized trials of computer-tailored interventions (CTIs) that simultaneously treated MHBs were analyzed. The differences between treatment and control proportions that ac… Show more

“…In the CHOICES IPC condition – consistent with recent research by Yin and colleagues (2013) suggesting that TTM interventions are more likely to result in paired action (the change of two targeted behaviors being more common than one) compared to control conditions- a larger proportion of women no longer at risk of AEP (47.3%) chose to reduce their risky drinking and engage in effective contraception use compared with 34.8% who did both in the control condition. Similar proportions of women in both groups chose to change only their contraceptive behavior (32.8% in the CHOICES IPC condition and 31.1% in the IO control group).…”

“…Yin et al [17] explore methods to determine the consistency, robustness, and synergy in patterns of multiple concurrent behavior change outcomes. They describe the phenomenon of paired action and discuss how changes over time on one behavior may influence change on the other behavior.…”

“…The multi-behavioral TTM is a promising strategy for the promotion of healthy lifestyles, and positive results for multiple behaviors in various scenarios have been reported (1,7,29,30). However, methodological differences among the studies persist, which hinders the demonstration of their effectiveness and their use in theoretical and practical applications.…”

“…It is estimated that 15% of the population account for 60% of health care costs due to multiple healthrisk behaviors (1). Considering the relevance of maximized costeffectiveness interventions, multi-behavioral TTM is promising for promoting coaction or paired actions, in which the change on one behavior can have a potential to change another behavior (29,30). The interventions evaluated in this review were included because they were multi-behavioral.…”
