Behavior Change Techniques
Cluster 8 — Repetition and Substitution
8.1. Behavioral practice/ rehearsal
Prompt practice or rehearsal of the performance of the behavior one or more times in a context or at a time when the performance may not be necessary, in order to increase habit and skill
Prompt substitution of the unwanted behavior with a wanted or neutral behavior
Prompt rehearsal and repetition of the behavior in the same context repeatedly so that the context elicits the behavior
Prompt rehearsal and repetition of an alternative behavior to replace an unwanted habitual behavior
Ask to repeat the wanted behavior in an exaggerated way following an unwanted behaviour
8.6. Generalization of a target behavior
Advise to perform the wanted behaviour, which is already performed in a particular situation, in another situation
Set easy-to-perform tasks, making them increasingly difficult, but achievable, until behavior is performed
