Introduction: Behaviour change interventions are advocated as a key approach to manage behavioural risk factors such as insufficient physical activity, poor diet and smoking. Integrated motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioural therapy (MI-CBT) interventions have become increasingly popular to promote behaviour change; however, there is a lack of agreement as to what constitutes necessary components of MI-CBT interventions for lifestyle behaviour change. The primary objective of this study is to use a consensus method to develop guidelines to design and deliver MI-CBT interventions for lifestyle behaviour change.

This study explored the use of the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation and Behaviour (COM-B) model and the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) to code and contextualise the experiences of participants who completed a PA coaching intervention underpinned by motivational interviewing and cognitive-behavioural therapy.
Design: Semistructured interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of participants.
Article Synopsis
- Hospital clinicians are encouraged to promote health through outpatient consultations, but there's limited knowledge about how patients feel about these initiatives.
- A study involving 22 non-admitted patients revealed that receiving recommendations for increased physical activity during hospital visits was seen as a valuable opportunity for change, with surgeons playing a key role in motivating patients.
- Most participants found the telephone coaching program helpful and appreciated the surgeons' approach that supported their autonomy, suggesting hospitals should integrate health promotion into regular care practices.
Objective: This paper explores the experiences of individuals who reported substantially decreasing physical activity (PA) as a result of COVID-19 and sought coaching support to increase PA.
Methods: A qualitative study using phenomenological analysis. Eight individuals participated in semi-structured interviews that focused on their experiences of decreasing PA as a result of physical distancing measures, and why they sought PA coaching to overcome these issues.
