Changing Health Behaviour by Jill Rutter
For many years, social cognition models have been at the forefront of research into predicting and explaining health behaviours. There have been few attempts to go beyond prediction and understanding to intervention - but now the position has changed, and a number of excellent interventions have been set up. This book bring them together here.
