Despite the information available about the benefits of physical activity, many older adults are not participating in sufficient physical activity to influence their quality of life positively. Activity professionals frequently intervene to change this behavior with less than optimal results. This paper provides a framework to approach changing activity levels by intervening with older adults according to their stage of readiness for change, rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. The Stages of Motivational Readiness for Change Model is discussed followed by suggestions for interventions at each stage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
