Prochaska, James O.; DiClemente, Carlo C.

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v51 n3 p390-95 Jun 1983

Applied an integrative model of change to the study of subjects (N=872) changing their smoking habits on their own. The subjects represented five stages of change: (1) precontemplation; (2) contemplation; (3) action; (4) maintenance; and (5) relapse. Relapsers' responses were a combination of contemplation and action. (JAC)
