C3 maintenance of behavioural change
Reasons for non-adherence: Methods used to improve adherence:
● stress – the perceived inability to cope as a
threat to behaviour change ● health education/promotion – relevant to
target group, improved access to information
● Rational non-adherence, including cost- ● Reduction of perceived threats – resistance,
benefit analysis, financial barriers, patient- fears, understanding of needs, safety and
practitioner relationship security
● Lifestyle changes – replacing unhealthy
● Learned helplessness – control over behaviours with healthy behaviours; reduction

confidence, emotional resilience, insight into
● lack of support – significant others, health own behaviour, improved outlook on life
professionals. ● Support for behavioural change including
provision of incentives, persuasive health
reminders (texts, self- tracking, progress
monitoring) and social prescribing.

, Stress (non-adherence)
● Stress can arise from poverty (Non-adherence is worse in lower socioeconomic groups)

● Stress is closely associated with chaotic lifestyles. Being disorganised can be stressful and stress can make people
disorganised (In these circumstances people forget to take medication or find it hard to follow medical advice)

● Stressed clients are usually anxious, so their attention becomes narrower. When speaking to professionals, they
latch onto key words and ignore the rest (For example, once a client hears the word ‘cancer’, they may not pay
attention to the more positive information that follows which would reduce their anxiety e.g. treatment)

● Stress can also interfere with memory. Even if clients understand medical advice, adherence is impossible if they
cannot remember it (Between 40% and 80% of medical advice is immediately forgotten and only about half of what
is remembered is correct)
