Definition(s)

  • In this study conducted in the USA, a group of highly motivated men, in the top 10 per cent risk group for coronary heart disease, were supported by counsellors and psychologists over a six-year period to change their eating and smoking habits. However, the trial showed that only modest changes to behaviour could be sustained. [Source: The Sage Dictionary of Health and Society; Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial]
