Patient Education and Counselling, 08/27/09
Osborn CY et al. – The IMB model is an appropriate, comprehensive health behavior change framework for diabetes self–care. The findings indicate that in addition to knowledge, diabetes education programs should target personal and social motivation to effect behavior change.
Chandra Y. Osborn, 08/28/09
| Our results also lend support to the growing body of literature and recommendations of tailoring health promotion interventions to the knowledge and motivation needs of patients. Based on the findings of this study and consistent with the IMB model, providers and educators need to first be aware of patients’ levels of knowledge and motivation and then tailor educational programs accordingly. Such interventions are likely to be more effective at producing behavior change than ad-hoc, knowledge-based programs alone. |
