Abstraksi:Abstract Stoltz and Kern (2007) posited that the Transtheoretical Model of Change (TTM) could be integrated with Individual Psychology to develop a more holistic conceptualization of the health behavior change process. This study tests this conceptualization by exploring the relationship of lifestyle and the TTM in a weight-loss sample. This study included 210 participants that completed the BASIS-A Inventory (Wheeler, Kern, & Curlette, 1993); the Weight: Staging Algorithm (Prochaska, 1979), the Weight: Processes of Change (Prochaska, Velicer, DiClemente, & Fava, 1988), and the Weight: Decisional Balance (Velicer, DiClemente, Prochaska, & Brandenburg, 1985) scales of the TTM; and a demographics sheet. Measurement of the TTM scales and demographic variables was taken twice, with a six-month interval between administrations. The results identified significant relationships between lifestyle attributes and elements of the TTM, and significant differences between the lifestyles of groups that make movement in the stages of change. These findings have important implications for using lifestyle attributes in helping individuals engage in weight management.
