Mediators of Behavioural Change
Strategies for Promoting Physical Activity & ‘Stages of Change Model’
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Mediators for behavioural change
A mediator is the mechanism through which the intervention (strategy) is believed to influence physical activity behaviour.
Self-efficacy can be improved if a person is taught strategies to remind themselves to be more active.
The improvement in these mediators combined might lead to a greater chance of behavioural change occurring.
Theoretical Social Models
Strategies for Promoting Physical Activity & ‘Stages of Change Model’
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Theoretical Social Models
Many professionals are trying to change people’s physical activity levels.
The focus of their promotion is biological, cognitive and behavioural factors the influence physical activity participation.
Physical activity theories cover; determinants of physical activity, relationships between factors and the conditions required to get people involved in physical activity.
Social Models; Provide a framework of health
behaviour that can enhance our understanding of participation in physical activity.
Can direct the development of strategies used to increase physical activity levels.
The major theoretical models related to physical activity;
1. Social cognitive theory2. Ecological framework3. Behaviour-choice model
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Social Models
Model Overview Key Factors Examples
Socio cognitive The social learning theory of emphasises the importance of observing and modeling the behaviors, attitudes, and emotional reactions
of others.
1. Behavioural capability
2. Observational learning
3. Expectations
4. Self-Efficacy
5. Reinforcements
A persons P.A. skills
Learn about P.A. by looking.
Expected results to from P.A.
Self control
Positive or negative events
The Ecological Framework
Looks to explain the cause of inactivity by looking at six sets of factors that are effectively solutions to the problem of physical inactivity
1. Interpersonal Factors
2. Interpersonal Processes
3. Institutional Factors
4. Community Factors
5. Public Policy
6. Environmental Factors
Knowledge, skills attitudes
social situations eg family or friends.
interaction between organisations.
local, state, national rules/laws
weather, facilities etc
The Behaviour-choice model
Includes three reasons why people choose to behave in certain ways.
1. Reinforcement Value
2. Environmental barriers
3. Preference
Consequences that result in a choice.
Lack of bike paths results bike being used less often.
Choose one behaviour over another.
Psychological Models
Strategies for Promoting Physical Activity & ‘Stages of Change Model’
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Psychological Theories
These theories are used to guide individual approaches.
These models are used by practitioners and policy makers to justify, shape and focus health promotion strategies.
Theories; Health-belief model Pender’s health promotion
model Theory of reasoned action Stages of Change *
*(Also called the ‘trans-theoretical model’)
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Psychological Theories Summary
Theory Overview Key Factors
The Health-belief Model
Promotes healthy behaviour change by addressing the patients health beliefs
1. Perceived susceptibility and severity of illnesses.
2. Perceived benefits
3. Information access to prompt action
4. Self-efficiency
Pender’s Health
Promotion Model
Developed to describe and explain health enhancing behaviours
1. How people value their health
2. Self-efficiency
3. Perceived health status and benefits
4. Barriers to change
5. Interpersonal factors
6. Family members
7. Relationships with health professionals
Theory of Reasoned
Action
People intend to participate in physical activity for a variety of reasons.
1. Benefits of physical activity is weighed up against long term health
2. Motivated by significant others such as family and peers.
Stages of Change
Shows the progression through several major changes of behaviour towards becoming more active.
1. Pre-contemplation
2. Contemplation
3. Preparation
4. Action
5. Maintenance
6. Termination
Note. Relapse can occur at most stages.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Stages of Change Model – Stages 1&2
Stage 2. Contemplation Acknowledge that they need to
become more active.
Weighing up the pros and cons of being more active.
Intention of becoming more active within the next 6 months.
Some individuals remain in this stage for long periods.
Stage 1. Pre-contemplation• Not considering behavioural change
• No intention of being more active within the next 6 months. • Not aware their lack of activity is a problem.
• Most difficult group
• Only start to think about change due to constant pressure or after a significant health event eg. heart attack.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Stages of Change Model- Stages 3&4
Stage 4. Action Requires the largest effort,
time and energy. Attempting to follow
National Physical Activity Guidelines.
Relapse is common, however if an individual maintains the active stage for six months they move into the maintenance stage.
Stage 3. Preparation•Seriously considering becoming more active •May exercise once or twice a week or several times a month. •May be doing physical activity but are not meeting the physical activity guidelines.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Stages of Change Model- Stages 5&6
Stage 5-Maintenance Regularly active as part of
their lifestyle Meeting NPAG for six months Person continually strives to
overcome barriers. May be in this stage for up to
five years.
Stage 6-Termination Regularly active for over five
years Relapse very unlikely Permanent behaviour change
has occurred.
Counselling options
Strategies for Promoting Physical Activity & ‘Stages of Change Model’
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Counselling options
Telephone counseling and automated telephone-delivered advice
Programmed to call people automatically including during convenient times.
Collect data for PA research. Counseling for people living in
isolated or remote areas Social support for older adults if
not familiar with using web-based technologies.
Health-professional counseling
• Advice from GPs is often highly regarded.
• GPs sometimes prescribe PA instead of a prescription for medication.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Counselling strategies- 1&2
1. Assessing motivational readiness One of the first steps is to assess
a persons motivational readiness to become more active.
Once their stage is determined, an individual’s motivation readiness can be matched with processes to change their behaviour.
2. Matching processes of change with motivational readiness
Stages of change = when people change behaviour
Processes of change = how people change their PA behaviour
Processes of change can be grouped into two different categories: cognitive processes & behavioural processes.
Individuals in early stages (Stages 1 or 2) focus on cognitive strategies eg increasing awareness and knowledge of the benefits of physical activity.
Later Stages (Stages 3,4 and 5) might include behavioural strategies such as developing a reminder system an encouraging the use of rewards.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Readiness to change – (motivational readiness)Are you accumulating at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical
activity on most (five+) days of the week?
No Yes
Are you accumulating at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical
activity at least one day per week?
Have you been doing this on a regular basis for the last six months?
Do you intend to increase your
physical activity?
If you’re doing physical activity
irregularly, you’re in the preparation
stage.
If you’re not even thinking about it, you are in the
precontemplation stage.
If you're giving it a thought now and then but not doing it, you are in the
contemplation stage.
If you have been doing this consistently but for fewer than six months, you are in the action
stage.
If you’re maintained the new habit for six
months of more you are in the maintenance
stage.
No
No
No
Yes
Yes Yes

Counselling strategies – 3&4
3. Identifying opportunities to be active
Before you can identify opportunities to be more active you have to be aware of how often you move.
Modern technology has minimised the need to move and people today sit longer hours than previous generations.
4. Contracting You could draw up a simple
contract that states your activity goals and have a witness sign it with you.
Set a date to reassess whether or not you have met your behavioural goal.
Reward yourself if goals are achieved.
Punishments can be used but should be determined by you.
Punishments should not be in the form of physical activity; eg. no television for a week.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Counselling strategies – 5&6
5. Enlisting social support Not having an exercise partner
is often a barrier to physical activity.
Many studies report that having someone to exercise with greatly increases your chances of being sufficiently active.
Support may come from family members, partners, friends, work colleagues or other community members.
6. Reminder systems Reminding yourself to be active
is especially important when you are in the ‘contemplation’ to ‘action’ phases of the Stages of Change Model.
The following are some example reminder systems:
Leave yourself a note on the refrigerator, computer or mirror.
Use a diary. Poster on office wall or desk. Get friends to send email or text
message to remind you Set reminders using your
computer or mobile phone.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Counselling strategies – 7&8
7. Gradual programming Similar to ‘progressive
overload’ - gradual increase in workload, frequency or intensity.
A slow, step-by-step approach desirable for inactive people
For a beginner, being exhausted at the end of an activity greatly reduces likelihood of continuing to be active.
8. TailoringPrescribing a physical activity plan
to meet the individual needs of each person.
Individual factors to consider include :
social support, access to facilities, work hours, cultural factors, family structure, fitness levels and climate.
Cognitive and Behavioural Strategies
Strategies for Promoting Physical Activity & ‘Stages of Change Model’
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Cognitive Strategies
Increasing Knowledge Encourage individual to read and
think about P.A.
Being Aware of risks Provide the individual with the
message that being inactive is very unhealthy.
Caring about the consequences to others Encourage the person to
recognise how their inactivity affects their family, friends and co-workers.
Comprehending benefits Assist the individual to
understand the personal benefits of being physically active.
Increasing healthy opportunities. Help the individual increase their
awareness of opportunities to be physically active
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Behavioural Strategies
Substituting alternatives Encourage the individual to
participate in physical activity when they are tired, stressed, or unlikely to want to be physically active.
Enlisting social support Encourage the individual to find
a family member, friend, or co-worker who is willing and able to provide support for being active.
shoes in the car/office, ready for use at any time
Rewarding yourself Encourage the individual to
praise themselves and reward themselves for being physically active
Committing yourself Encourage the individual to
make promises, plans and commitments to be active.
Reminding yourself Teach the individual how to set
up reminders to be active, such as keeping comfortable
Physical Activity Promotion
Strategies for Promoting Physical Activity & ‘Stages of Change Model’
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Promotion of Physical Activity
Population based promotion Environmental / Policy Mass mediaPopulation approaches are designed to
reach large segments of society or specific population groups.
Population based information is often collected by VicHealth, National Heart Foundation and various universities.
Information collected is used to establish government priorities and initiatives.
Individual based promotion Theoretical models of change Print and web-based media Counselling and screening
These strategies are often based on theoretical models of individual behaviour change
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Environmental Strategies
1. Tailoring – Changing physical environments to suit community needs. Eg. Walking track along Wimmera river promotes walking.
2. Removing impediments to activity – Take away reasons for people not to participate in PA eg. Design walking tracks away from major highways/roads.
3. Introducing new resources and facilities – eg. New sports grounds, age specific playgrounds.
4. Support from other programs – eg. Reducing crime in an area will make people feel more safe to go for a walk.
5. Opening Hours – Opening sporting venues before and after business hours.
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Sample Environmental Strategies
VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Print and Web-based Media
Print media can promote PA in;
Booklets Brochures & handoutsIt is available from; Recreational centres Regional Sports
Assemblies Health care centres School and workplaces Mail outsDoesn’t require internet
access.
Web bases media promotes PA through;
Interactive websites Works through the stages of
change Great short term value – not
long term

Mass Media & Participation
Mass media can influence participation by; Providing information on its health and non-health
benefits Encouraging public participation Providing information regarding access to
community based programs Motivating individuals to take action

VCE Physical Education - Unit 3
Specific ‘At Risk’ Groups
Groups at risk of being inactive include; Low socio-economic backgrounds Race and ethic minorities Disabled peopleIntervention programs include;1. Community involvement – Local planning to target specific groups2. Needs assessment – Community surveys, interviews etc of focus group. One
program doesn’t fit all.3. Understanding the target group – Need to make the program with an
understanding of key values, cultural beliefs and methods of overcoming barriers to PA.
