About This Course
Stages of Change, also known as, the Transtheoretical Model (TTM), focuses on the decision-making of the individual and is a model of intentional change. Stages of Change operates on the assumption that people do not change behaviors quickly and decisively. Rather, change in behavior, especially habitual behavior, occurs continuously through a cyclical process. Stages of Change is not a theory but a model; different behavioral theories and constructs can be applied to various stages of the model where they may be most effective. This course highlights the significance of flexibility and understanding in adjusting OP treatment to meet changing individual and treatment needs. Intentional change needs to be flexible, individualized, and allows individuals to move through Stages of Change as needed.
Learning Objectives:
- Posits that individuals move through six Stages of Change.
