Action-oriented programs typically place high demands on both health promotion professionals and participants. The new paradigm can provide high-intensity, interactive programs that demand much less of both professionals and participants.
Our approach produces realistic goals that can maximize the benefits of brief or low-intensity interventions.
Programs based on the new paradigm can effectively complement current action-oriented programs in two ways:
a. Stage-based programs are excellent for people who do not participate in traditional action-oriented programs.
b. Stage-based programs are promising alternatives for people who do not succeed in traditional action-oriented programs.
14. Our approach is appropriate for high-risk populations with multiple behavioral risk factors.
15. The most effective action-oriented programs typically cannot be delivered in a cost-effective manner to remote sites. The most effective programs based on the new paradigm can deliver high-quality services to remote sites.
