Abstract

Some patients still struggle with taking their medications even after a good physician-patient relationship has been established, an appropriate medication has been chosen, and steps have been taken to minimize forgetfulness. These patients may still not be motivated to take the medication, or may lack the belief in their own ability to achieve the desired adherence behaviors or clinical outcomes. The information-motivation-behavioral skills model [1] suggests that both motivation and self-efficacy have a crucial influence on behavioral skills, which then produce better adherence behavior. This chapter will explore motivational interviewing for building motivation, some techniques for improving self-efficacy, and an example of a practical technology-based intervention that illustrates many of the principles presented.
