METHOD FOR INCREASING THE LIKELIHOOD TO INDUCE BEHAVIOR CHANGE IN A LIFESTYLE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

摘要

A method and corresponding system for increasing the likelihood of inducing behavior change in a lifestyle management program for a user includes sensing at least one behavior parameter of a user; identifying at least one intention-behavior gap based on the sensing of the behavior parameter; via application of a genetic algorithm generating a quantified profile of the intention-behavior gap; via a user interface, suggesting at least one action to accept or reject; and varying the quantified profile based on the action accepted or rejected by the user. The user interface may include a smart phone that includes at least one sensor for sensing location and activity of a user of the user interface, or a dedicated device that communicates with a sensor for sensing a behavior parameter, or the sensor is disposed on the body of the user or on a garment worn by the user.

1. A method for increasing the likelihood of inducing behavior change in a lifestyle management program for a user comprising:
sensing at least one behavior parameter of a user; identifying at least one intention-behavior gap based on the sensing of the at least one behavior parameter; generating a quantified profile of the at least one intention-behavior gap of the user; via a user interface, suggesting to the user at least one action that the user can accept or reject; and varying the quantified profile based on the at least one action accepted or rejected by the user.
