Goal prioritization and behavior change: Evaluation of an intervention for multiple health behaviors.

Conclusions: The present findings offer new evidence that goal prioritization is effective in promoting health behavior change. Prioritizing health goals engenders behavior change for both one and two focal behaviors and does so without adversely affecting the performance of nonprioritized health behaviors. Further tests of interventions to promote the priority of health goals are warranted. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
