[behaviormed] Your Best Reference On Behavioral Approaches to Changing Eating And Activity Choices?

[guy bruce]

Joe and colleagues,

I have the opportunity to convince my local hospital to try a behavioral
approach to helping its employees reduce their disease risk. It would be
great if I could provide a reference on the effectiveness of behavioral
approaches in helping people change their eating and activity choices. Joe
previously sent me some references (thanks), but I'm wondering if there are
any I have overlooked. If you could only recommend one study (or perhaps a
book that summarizes the benefits of behavioral approaches to improving
health) which one would you recommend?

Guy

The following page is on the professional practice of behavior analysis

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_practice_of_behavior_analysis#Curr
ent_areas_of_application_in_education

 

It has a section on behavior analysis in the hospital setting. Please take a
moment to look over and add to that section.
