Abstract

The stages of change construct from the transtheoretical model has been applied to a wide variety of health-related behaviors including nutrition interventions. However, there is limited literature regarding how this construct is being applied in nutrition counseling. The purpose of this study was to survey nutrition professionals on their knowledge and use of the stages of change construct. Most participants are assessing this construct in practice. Use is dependent upon the practice setting and the patient population. Positively, most nutrition professionals would be willing to learn more about and/or use a validated tool to assess this construct in practice.
