Implementation Intentions
Studies demonstrated the effectiveness of implementation intentions in increasing the likelihood of behavioral enactment.
Example of Implementation Intention for Exercise
Milne, Orbell, and Sheeran (1998) demonstrated that 91% of people who formed an implementation intention concerning when and where to commence physical exercise during the following week subsequently exercised, compared with 29% of a control group.
