An intervention designed to investigate habit formation in a novel health behaviour
Objectives Understanding how to help people form habits is important in improving health interventions. The impact of two behaviour change techniques on behaviour (cues and monitoring) was tested, and the role of psychosocial factors that may predict behaviour change and habit formation were investigated. Methods: Participants (N = 186) were randomised to one of six conditions (behaviour monitoring vs habit monitoring vs irrelevant behaviour moni…
Investigating mechanisms for recruiting and retaining volunteers
Volunteering rates in high-income countries are declining. Most research into understanding volunteering engagement has focused on conscious processes (e.g., motives), with little exploration of non-conscious antecedents of volunteering engagement. Adopting a new line of investigation, this research used temporal self-regulation theory to investigate the influence of both rational and automatic processes on volunteering engagement. Two related st…
Food healthiness versus tastiness
Breaking bad habits by improving executive function in individuals with obesity
The RCT was registered with the Australian New Zealand Registry of Clinical Trials (trial id: ACTRN12613000537752 )
Does inhibitory control training improve health behaviour? A meta-analysis
The Role of Habit and Perceived Control on Health Behavior among Pregnant Women
Findings highlight the influence of habit on behavior and suggest that automaticity interventions may be useful in changing health behaviors during pregnancy
Physical Activity and Transitioning to College
Intention and habit exert independent effects on physical activity within this population, and are both suitable targets for intervention
Two inhibitory control training interventions designed to improve eating behaviour and determine mechanisms of change
Examining the predictive utility of an extended theory of planned behaviour model in the context of specific individual safe food-handling
Individual differences in executive function predict distinct eating behaviours
