Health Behavior Project
The paper involves you choosing a health-related behavior that you would like to personally
change (e.g., smoking, exercise, flossing, etc.) and then monitoring that behavior for 7 days
without changing anything (i.e., this will be your baseline data). After this, you will develop and
implement a plan to change that health behavior for 10 days. You need to include at least 2
theories from class to explain the health-related behavior (i.e., explain why you are currently not
flossing from the biopsychosocial model, etc.) OR to explain how you will change that health
behavior. You should then monitor the behavior change for 10 days. You will need to include
evidence of monitoring the behavior for 7 days as baseline data and for 10 days as the behavior
change process (e.g., graphs from Fitbit, screenshots of your cell phone notifications to remind
you to floss, etc.). This "evidence" should be included as an appendix in your paper (and does
not count toward the total pages required). Please write a 4-page, double-spaced, one-inch
margin, 12-point font paper describing your experience. You should include a title page (this
does not count toward the 4 page total).
