COVI White Paper (2020, background): “Engagement data gathered from in-application analytics tools and displayed on an internal engagement dashboard allows us to leverage a combination of behavioural science frameworks established in the fields of public health [97], behavioural product management [98] and ethical behaviour change [99] ”
Behavior Change Techniques Present in Wearable Activity Trackers: A Critical Analysis (2016, methodology): “It was based on an earlier 26-item taxonomy developed in 2008 by Abraham and Michie [17,18] and was refined using systematic reviews of physical activity and healthy eating interventions.”
Systematic review of the validity and reliability of consumer-wearable activity trackers (2015, background): “The trackers enable self-monitoring towards daily or longer-term goals (such as a goal to walk a certain distance over time) and can be used to compare against one’s peers or a broader community of users, both of which are advantageous mediators to increasing walking and overall physical activity [3”
An Exploratory Study of “Quantitative Linguistic Feedback” (2013, methodology): “Quantitative linguistic feedback is a multifaceted technique for behavior change that may work through a number of different mechanisms as described in the CALO-RE taxonomy (Michie et al., 2011).”
Effective behaviour change techniques for physical activity and healthy eating in overweight and obese adults; systematic review and meta-regression analyses (2017, methodology): “Previous reviews have used either the 26 or the 44 BCT taxonomy [8, 9], on various target populations, behaviours, and used different meta-analytic strategies.”
Successful behavior change in obesity interventions in adults: a systematic review of self-regulation mediators (2015, background): “Moreover, because it is unlikely that any single factor (self-regulatory or otherwise) by itself will explain a large share of variance of change in complex behaviors such as physical activity and diet (as a result of an intervention), the identification of groups of significant predictors, which ca”
Mind the theoretical gap: interpreting, using, and developing behavioral theory in HCI research (2013, methodology): “As these examples illustrate, behavioral scientists are increasingly calling for concrete predictions that are falsifiable and for tests that support, reject, or alter full conceptual frameworks, or alternatively, for tests that focus on constructs or interactions of constructs only [ e.g., 51].”
Behavior Change Techniques Implemented in Electronic Lifestyle Activity Monitors: A Systematic Content Analysis (2014, positive): “Upon recalculation using only those techniques that also exist in the 40-item taxonomy [19], we found that the activity monitor systems included 6-12 out of 40 techniques, with an average of 9 techniques per system.”
Physical activity: Health impact, prevalence, correlates and interventions (2017, methodology): “Eight of the adult reviews used the CALO-RE (Michie et al., 2011) taxonomy or a variant while the remaining reviews used study created coding schemes to separate behaviour change strategies.”
A Meta-Analysis of Serious Digital Games for Healthy Lifestyle Promotion (2014, background): “More detailed process descriptions on how theory guided change in specific target outcomes, e.g. using the Intervention Mapping Protocol (Bartholomew et al., 2011) or the Behavior Change Wheel (Michie et al., 2011b), are needed.”
Behaviour change theory and evidence: a presentation to Government (2013, background): “Further details of this approach are available in Michie et al. (2011b).”
What are the most effective intervention techniques for changing physical activity self-efficacy and physical activity behaviour--and are they the same? (2011, methodology): “We conducted 20 moderator analyses using the techniques included in the revised taxonomy of behaviour change as grouping variable [19] (see Table IV).”
Persuasive technology in the real world: a study of long-term use of activity sensing devices for fitness (2014, background): “As Michie et. al. discuss, there is a wide range of approaches to achieve behavior change [14].”
