Transtheoretical Model (TTM) • TTM draws on other theories • Purpose is to guide the timing and content of interventions • Composed of a number of constructs including Stages of Change
Stages of Change • Precontemplation – unaware of a problem and has no intention to change • Contemplation –aware that there is a problem but with no serious plan to change
Stages of Change (con’t) • Preparation –determined to change but has no plan of action • Action –attempts to implement a plan of action for at least 6 months • Maintenance – has implemented a plan for several months and new behaviors are becoming automatic
Stages of Change (con’t) • Termination – is the ultimate goal in which changes have been followed for several years. Some never reach this stage • Recycling – going back and forth through the stages
Process of Change • Ten activities used to progress through the stages of change • Processes are cognitive and behavioral activities with specific task and goals to change thoughts and behaviors
Process of Change (con’t) 1. Consciousness raising – increases awareness to the consequences 2. Dramatic Relief –increases emotional awareness 3. Self-reevaluation – includes both cognitive and affective reassessment of self-image
Process of Change (con’t) 4. Environmental reevaluation – affects on social climate 5. Self-liberation – belief that one can change and commitment to act 6. Social liberation – increases social alternatives and opportunities 7. Counterconditioning – changing behavior in response to activities

Step 1: Goal Identification • Goals are specific, measurable, attainable, timely • Goals should be small steps • Goals can be motivating • Start with 1-2 easy goals for client
Step 2: Goal Importance and Acceptance • Assess goal importance on numerical scale (1-10) • Pick goals of high importance to client
Step 3: Goal Analysis and Overcoming Obstacles • Discuss problems in achieving goals • Discover and help overcome obstacles
Step 4: Goal Implementation • Discuss specific steps person will take • Provide nutrition information • Client compares performance to goals • Attaining goals is motivating, increases self-efficacy • Falling short decreases self-efficacy
