      14 A Assessing readiness and confidence levels are appropriate. CBT is used at later stages of change. Lifestyle prescriptions are not specific to each patient and general advice is best used at the precontemplation stage which this person has already passed (Kelly and Shull 2019, p. 41).

      15 B This is the precontemplation stage and it will be appropriate to raise the issue at another consultation as the patient may have changed his mind. Exploring his health beliefs and providing general healthy lifestyle advice are appropriate (DiClemente et al. 1991; Stewart and Fox 2011; Crespo et al. 2019).TIPS BOX 2.2 Stages of ChangeTechniques such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Positive Psychology are used to assist patients in the behaviour change process:In the early stages of change (precontemplation and contemplation stages), Motivational Interviewing is helpfulIn the preparation, action, and maintenance stages, CBT is most usefulAll stages of change can benefit from Positive PsychologySources: Hashemzadeh et al.

      17 D Positive psychology is used at all stages while Motivational Interviewing methods come in handy in the early stages (Wong 2011; Fredrickson and Joiner 2018).

      18 A An assessment of the patient’s confidence in the key areas of lifestyle change such as stress management, nutrition, and physical activity is helpful and forms the basis of the subsequent discussion when they go in to see the clinician (Kelly and Shull 2019, p. 41).

      19 D The person’s confidence in managing the change is a key factor in determining their ability to accomplish the goal (Bandura 2010; Ha et al. 2018).

      21 A A hug may be unprofessional, and the patients should be encouraged, not compelled, to write down their goals (Hicks and McCracken 2009; Frates and Bonnet 2016).

      22 A Better HbA1c control is the correct study outcome in the list. The study demonstrated that empathy is a clinically important factor in patient outcomes (Hojat et al. 2011).

      23 B 10‐hour training on empathy skills achieved the same result as longer training and had a positive effect on the consultation (Lewin et al. 2001; Dwamena et al. 2012; Boissy et al. 2016).

      24 B While the other options may have a role to play, identifying the patient’s concerns and applying positive psychology are key aspects of a successful consultation (Boissy et al. 2016; Fredrickson and Joiner 2018).

      28 C While writing down treatment plans is useful, this is not appropriate in the precontemplation stage, whereas positive psychology is important at every stage (Alexandrova 2017; Fredrickson and Joiner 2018).

      29 A The ability to develop discrepancy between where the patient is and what the patient wants is a key skill in motivational interviewing. The other key features are expressing empathy, rolling with resistance, and supporting self‐efficacy (Miller and Rollnick 2012; Soderlund 2018; Tolchin et al. 2019).

      31 A All or nothing thinking is unproductive. The other options are not recognized thinking patterns (Trifu et al. 2019; Beck 2020).

      32 C ‘Should’ and ‘must’ statements are features of unproductive thinking (Trifu et al. 2019; Beck 2020).

A refers to the action or event that has occurred, B is the belief one has about what occurred, and D encourages the patient to dispute unhealthy beliefs. C is consequences of those beliefs should be explored. (Sarracino et al. 2017; Kelly and Shull 2019, p. 43; Tips Box 2.3).

      37 C A successful relapse prevention plan involves knowing what to do when a lapse occurs (Larimer et al. 1999; Kelly and Shull 2019, p. 50).

      38 D A key step in Positive Psychology is the promotion of self‐efficacy in patients. Positive psychology aims to build a patient’s confidence by emphasizing their current skills, abilities, and positive actions. It enhances resilience and helps undo negative feelings (Wong 2011; Fredrickson and Joiner 2018).TIPS BOX 2.3 ABCD Method of Behavioural ChangeUnhelpful beliefs can interfere with the behaviour change process.

      44 A Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is best used in preparation, action, and maintenance stages. She is already prepared to use the gym but is worried her knee will limit her ability. CBT techniques can help her reframe this limiting thought by realizing she can start gently and do more as time goes on (Fredrickson and Joiner 2018; Soderlund 2018).

      45 D Positive psychology to affirm what she is already doing with her meals is the best course of action at this stage (Fredrickson and Joiner 2018; Crespo et al. 2019).

      46 A Addressing a patient’s ideas, concerns, and expectations (ICE) is a good practice. Summarizing shows good listening and understanding abilities (Miller 2018; Ng and Luk 2019).
