Promoting behavior change: making healthy choices in wellness and healing choices in illness - use of self-determination theory in nursing practice.
Nursing Clinics of North America 2007 June
This article explores more efficacious strategies for holistic nurses to promote healthy behavior choices in their clients. It presents an overview of self-determination theory (SDT) and describes research evidence that supports the application of SDT to promoting healthy behavior change in clients.

Some examples of nursing interventions to motivate behavior change are outlined in this article.
