CHAPTER 1 CMPC EXAM STUDY PREP
WITH CORRECT SOLUTIONS
Transtheoretical Model of Change (6 stages) - ANSWER-1. Precontemplation -> no
awareness/intention of behaviour change
2. Contemplation -> Aware of needed behaviour change, planning for change but have
not yet committed to change
3. Preparation -> begin planning to make behaviour change and are committed to
following through
4. Action -> have implemented intended behaviour modifications in an effort to change
behaviour
5. Maintenance -> maintaining behaviour change and trying to prevent termination of
behaviour change
6. Termination -> failure to maintain intended behaviour change
Transtheoretical Model characteristics - ANSWER-Pros must outweigh the cons
Self-efficacy > temptation
Dominant model
Precontemplation stage - ANSWER-unaware, no intention
non-compliance, amotivated, not ready
MPCs should educate and build trust
Contemplation stage - ANSWER-Committed to action in next 6 months
Pros or cons of whether they need MPC services
Goal to build self-efficacy and highlight benefits of change
Preparation stage - ANSWER-Planning & committed -> setting goals, establishing
timelines
Help make plans realistic
Help plan for good/bad
Action stage - ANSWER-implement plan, changing behaviour (<6 months)
Provide feedback and build self-efficacy
Maintenance stage - ANSWER-Changed behaviours are established (>6 months)
Consistently apply mental skills
Refer to refocus plan if distracted
Termination stage - ANSWER-100% self-efficacious, no possibility of relapse
MPC to facilitate change is complete
Remain available for support
, Theory of Planned Behaviour (definition) - ANSWER-Key factor influencing change is
intention to perform the behaviour
According to the Theory of Planned Behaviour, what factors influence intention to
change the behaviour? - ANSWER-Attitude towards chage
Subjective norms

Takes time to create change
What is solution talk? - ANSWER-Moving from problem-dominated conversation into
solution oriented conversation
SFBT (theory) - ANSWER-Clients are experts, encouraged to create solutions through
well defined goals
Little attention to background & diagnostics
SFBT (limitations) - ANSWER-Clients may not feel understood or heard
Solution is limited if problem not fully understood
SFBT (application) - ANSWER-Pre/post performance
Focus on key competences in present moment
Can help athletes fixated on problems
Who developed SFBT? - ANSWER-Steve de Shazer & Insoo Kim Berg
PCT (characteristics) - ANSWER-Therapeutic alliance is important
