Determinants of health
Where and how to intervene
Individual interventions • • • • reduce motivation to engage in unhealthy behaviours increase motivation to engage in healthy behaviours motivation into action and sustain healthy behaviours (behavioural skills) enhance self-regulation Societal interventions • • • • attitudes and culture Choice architecture (nudging) incentive structures restrict or enhance opportunities Dynamic process of interaction level.

Good evidence from systematic reviews of RCTs for effectiveness of behavioural interventions on all outcome levels Key challenges: • Considerable heterogeneity of effect sizes • Small to medium effects • Lack of sustainability

RE-AIM: A model of sustainable implementation of effective, generalisable, evidence-based interventions
Reach - How do we reach the targeted population with the intervention?
Efficacy - How do we know our intervention is effective?
Adoption - How do we develop organizational support to deliver our intervention?
Implementation - How do we ensure the intervention is delivered properly?
Maintenance - How do we incorporate the intervention so that it is delivered over the long term?

Public Health interventions are often complex
Number of interacting components • Number and difficulty of behaviours involved • Number of groups or organisational levels targeted • Number and variability of outcomes • Degree of flexibility or tailoring permitted
Features of Behaviour Change interventions
1. Behaviour change techniques (BCTs), e.g., prompt goal setting or self-monitoring of behaviour 2. Modes of delivery, e.g., individual vs. group delivery; intensity, duration, technology use, materials, facilitator variables, etc 3. Theory: theoretical mediators, rationale for combining elements, cover story of intervention 4. Procedural and clinical features: e.g., techniques and features to establish rapport, adherence, communication and fidelity as well as facilitator skills, features and training.

The problem with behaviour change
• Attempts to change people’s behaviour are often geared towards: – • Raising Knowledge (lecturing) “Did you know that…” – • Providing Advice (instructing) “Why don’t you…” – • Motivating (scaring) “If you don’t … then …”
Why are many public health campaigns not informed by behaviour change evidence?
• • • • • Behaviour change evidence is not good enough?
Behaviour change evidence is not relevant for public health?
Behaviour change evidence is not effectively disseminated?
Commissioners don’t listen to psychologists?
A lack of sustainable infrastructure to co produce relevant evidence?
Why theory?
• • • Enables cumulative science • • Provides a shared language Summarises known evidence Explains observations • Allows prediction • Enables intervention Problem of ‘implicit’ theory ‘a
theory
is a set of statements that organizes, predicts and explains observations; it tells you how phenomena relate to each other, and what you can expect under still unknown conditions’
Bem, S and Looren de Jong, H (1997) Theoretical issues in Psychology, Sage publications: London. p. 15
How does Theory help in developing and delivering interventions?
• • • • • Identify targets (e.g., cognitive or social determinants of behaviour) Suggest behaviour change techniques Suggest sequences or combinations of techniques and determinants Allows for tailoring of interventions (e.g., stage theories such as the ‘TTM’ /’stages of change model’ Evidence very weak!
Provides a ‘cover story’ for intervention content
Choosing a theoretical approach
(too) many theories of behaviour
• • • • 33 theories and 128 constructs generated In four overlapping areas: – motivation – action – organisation – behaviour change Simplified into 11 domains of theoretical constructs Interview questions associated with each domain Michie, S., Johnston, M., Abraham, C., Lawton, R., Parker, D. and Walker, A.

Progress in theorising:
the decline of landmark theories
• • • Popular landmark theories such as the Transtheoretical Model and the Theory of Planned Behaviour have passed their prime.
They conflict with experimental evidence and showed limited utility for research and practice Development of more comprehensive theories with better evidence fit is ongoing West, R. (2005). Time for a change: Putting the Transtheoretical (Stages of Change) Model to rest.

My involvement in Systematic Reviews
Identifying the evidence base:
Problems with systematic reviews of behaviour change interventions • • • • Interventions are often poorly reported in terms of content, delivery, theory and fidelity.
Often considerable risk of bias within and across trials Limited evidence about sustainability of effects It is surprising how little we know about how best to change people’s health behaviour.
Are theory based interventions more effective?
• In depth analysis of studies included in two systematic reviews of physical activity and healthy eating interventions (k 190). • Interventions based on Social Cognitive Theory or the ‘Transtheoretical’ Model were no more effective than interventions not explicitly based on theory • Implementation of theory variable and overall poor Prestwich, A., Sniehotta, F.

Biomedicine vs behavioural science … Example of smoking cessation effectiveness
• • Varenicline JAMA, 2006 Behavioural counselling Cochrane, 2005
Intervention content
• Intervention content – Review smoking history & motivation to quit – Help identify high risk situations – Generate problem-solving strategies
Mechanism of action
– Activity at a subtype of the nicotinic receptor where its binding produces agonistic activity, while simultaneously preventing binding to a4b2 receptors – Non-specific support & encouragement • Mechanism of action – None mentioned

Identifying Effective Change Techniques in Interventions Designed to Promote Physical Activity and Healthy Eating
• Systematic review and meta-analysis • 84 interventions • average of 6 techniques • small effect d = 0.37 (95% CI 0.29 to 0.54, N = 28,838) • self-monitoring – associated with effectiveness (14.6% variance explained). – Interventions including this technique had a medium effect size of d = 0.57. – Interventions combining self-monitoring with at least one other technique derived from control theory were more than twice as effective as the other interventions with d = 0.60 d = 0.26 respectively Michie S, et al (2009) Identifying Effective Techniques in Interventions: A meta-analysis and meta-regression Health Psychology

Evaluating Public Health Interventions
– – – Newly introduced interventions often not evaluated Ask Fuse – a feature for commissioners and practitioners to collaborate with Fuse, the UK CRC Centre for Translational Research in Public Health Current work commissioned by the NIHR School of Public Health Research to develop guidelines for the evaluation of local public health interventions
Example 1: A&E admission after Stroke
• • People often delay seeking medical help, typically 3-6h Pre-hospital delay prevents access to best treatment
Teuschl et al., 2011
• Various reasons for delay including clinical, contextual and cognitive
Act FAST Campaign
• • • UK national awareness raising campaign Rolled out in multiple waves: – Feb 2009, Nov 2009, Feb 2010, May 2011, March 2012 Targeted : – Population: television, press and radio – Health professionals: emails, newsletters, posters and leaflets
Act FAST Campaign
• • • • FAST = Face, Arms, Speech, Time to call 999 Developed for rapid ambulance protocol to increase diagnostic accuracy of stroke in paramedical staff (Face, Arms, Speech,
T
est) High levels of diagnostic accuracy and good agreement between professionals Since been adapted as a public awareness instrument in English speaking countries
