Action correct answer Action is the stage in which people have made
specific overt modifications in their lifestyles within the past six
months. Because action is observable, the overall process of behavior
change often has been equated with action. But in the TTM, Action is
only one of six stages. Typically, not all modifications of behavior count
as Action in this Model. In most applications, people have to attain a
criterion that scientists and professionals agree is sufficient to reduce
risk of disease. For example, reduction in the number of cigarettes or
switching to low-tar and low-nicotine cigarettes were formerly
considered acceptable actions. Now the consensus is clear—only total
abstinence counts.
