Timeline
Interventions
The tailored intervention made use of the 10 processes of change, important guides for developing intervention programs, which have received the most empirical support to date. The 10 processes include consciousness raising, dramatic relief, self-reevaluation, environmental reevaluation, self-liberation, social liberation, counterconditioning, stimulus control, reinforcement management, and helping relations. The different tailored interventions were based on the processes of change matched to the patient's stage of change, providing strategies that may be especially helpful to patients. According to the Lenio analysis of the TTM model of behavior change, the first five processes are used in the early stages, and the last five are used in the later stages.
