Description - Self-Regulation in Health Behavior by Denise de Ridder

This text offers a comprehensive overview of new approaches to health-related behaviour from a self-regulation perspective.

The book is arranged in two sections – Goal Setting and Goal Activation in Health Behaviour and Goal Striving and Goal Persistence. The epilogue compares self-regulation theories with the prevailing social-cognitive models.
