Low-income Groups and Behaviour Change Interventions: A review of intervention content and effectiveness (26th March 2008)
This is the second paper in a series, Kicking Bad Habits, on how people can be encouraged to adopt healthy behaviour. Looking at interventions targeted specifically at low-income groups, this paper asks whether different techniques or modes of delivery are needed to promote healthier lifestyles to these lower income groups. It reveals that the most frequently used techniques are providing information and encouraging people to set goals, which can be particularly effective at changing behaviour in disadvantaged groups. There will be three more of these discussion papers before a final report is produced in late 2008.
