BCT group | Factor loading | BCTTv1 number and label | BCT definition |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 0.823 | 1.5 Review behaviour goals | Review behaviour goal(s) jointly with the person and consider modifying goal(s) or behaviour change strategy in light of achievement. This may lead to resetting the same goal, a small change in that goal or setting a new goal instead of (or in addition to) the first, or no change |
0.783 | 1.4 Action-planning | Prompt detailed planning of performance of the behaviour (must include at least one of context, frequency, duration and intensity). Context may be environmental (physical or social) or internal (physical, emotional or cognitive) | |
0.729 | 15.3 Focus on past success | Advise to think about or list previous successes in performing the behaviour (or parts of it) | |
0.717 | 1.1 Goal-setting (behaviour) | Set or agree a goal defined in terms of the behaviour to be achieved | |
0.712 | 15.4 Self-talk | Prompt positive self-talk (aloud or silently) before and during the behaviour | |
0.705 | 3.3 Social support (emotional) | Advise on, arrange or provide emotional–social support (e.g. from friends, relatives, colleagues, ‘buddies’ or staff) for performance of the behaviour | |
0.624 | 1.2 Problem-solving | Analyse, or prompt the person to analyse factors influencing the behaviour and generate or select strategies that include overcoming barriers and/or increasing facilitators | |
0.613 | 2.3 Self-monitoring of behaviour | Establish a method for the person to monitor and record their behaviour(s) as part of a behaviour change strategy | |
0.570 | 8.7 Graded tasks | Set easy-to-perform tasks, making them increasingly difficult, but achievable, until behaviour is performed | |
0.560 | 1.3 Goal-setting (outcome) | Set or agree a goal defined in terms of a positive outcome of wanted behaviour | |
0.523 | 1.6 Discrepancy between current behaviour and goal | Draw attention to discrepancies between a person’s current behaviour (in terms of the form, frequency, duration or intensity of that behaviour) and the person’s previously set outcome goals, behavioural goals or action plans (goes beyond self-monitoring of behaviour) | |
0.503 | 2.4 Self-monitoring of outcomes of behaviour | Establish a method for the person to monitor and record the outcome(s) of their behaviour as part of a behaviour change strategy | |
0.489 | 1.8 Behavioural contract | Create a written specification of the behaviour to be performed, agreed by the person and witnessed by another | |
2 | 0.807 | 2.7 Feedback on outcomes of behaviour | Monitor and provide feedback on the outcome of performance of the behaviour |
0.740 | 2.2 Feedback on behaviour | Monitor and provide informative or evaluative feedback on performance of the behaviour (e.g. form, frequency, duration, intensity) | |
0.626 | 6.2 Social comparison | Draw attention to others’ performance to allow comparison with the person’s own performance | |
3 | 0.665 | 5.2 Salience of consequences | Use methods specifically designed to emphasise the consequences of performing the behaviour with the aim of making them more memorable (goes beyond informing about consequences |
0.651 | 12.3 Avoidance/reducing exposure to cues for the behaviour | Advise on how to avoid exposure to specific social and contextual/physical cues for the behaviour, including changing daily or weekly routines | |
0.599 | 6.3 Information about others’ approval | Provide information about what other people think about the behaviour. The information clarifies whether others will like, approve or disapprove of what the person is doing or will do | |
0.498 | 12.2 Restructuring the social environment | Change, or advise to change the social environment to facilitate performance of the wanted behaviour or create barriers to the unwanted behaviour (other than prompts/cues, rewards and punishments) | |
0.475 | 5.3 Information about social and environmental consequences | Provide information (e.g. written, verbal, visual) about social and environmental consequences of performing the behaviour | |
0.460 | 5.1 Information about health consequences | Provide information (e.g. written, verbal, visual) about health consequences of performing the behaviour | |
0.453 | 13.2 Framing/reframing | Suggest the deliberate adoption of a perspective or new perspective on behaviour (e.g. its purpose) to change cognitions or emotions about performing the behaviour (includes ‘cognitive structuring’) | |
4 | 0.726 | 8.1 Behavioural practice/rehearsal | Prompt practice or rehearsal of the performance of the behaviour one or more times in a context or at a time when the performance may not be necessary, to increase habit and skill |
0.621 | 6.1 Demonstration of the behaviour | Provide an observable sample of the performance of the behaviour, directly in person or indirectly (e.g. via film, pictures, for the person to aspire to or imitate), includes ‘modelling’ | |
0.563 | 4.1 Instruction on how to perform the behaviour | Advise or agree on how to perform the behaviour (includes ‘skills training’) | |
5 | 0.834 | 12.6 Body changes | Alter body structure, functioning or support directly to facilitate behaviour change |
0.736 | 10.9 Self-reward | Prompt self-praise or self-reward if and only if there has been effort and/or progress in performing the behaviour | |
0.509 | 11.2 Reduce negative emotions | Advise on ways of reducing negative emotions to facilitate performance of the behaviour (includes ‘stress management’) |
