Explanation:
In 1984, Prochaska and DiClemente hypothesized that behavioral changes follow a series of more or less standardized stages. The Transtheoretical Model is based on the basic premise that behavioral change is a process and people have different levels of motivation and intention to change. Preparation is the stage in which people are motivated towards change in the near future, that is, the person has already made the decision to do something about it and begins to take some small steps. People in preparation, in general, already have concrete experiences in relation to change, mainly in the last calendar year. These people have a plan to act or participate in some activity, so they have great potential to participate in action-oriented programs.
