Overview

Health behavior theories (HBTs) are used to describe, predict, and understand health behaviors, as well as to inform the development and use of behavior change strategies. Recent technological advancements and increased focus on social and structural determinants of health challenge traditional approaches to developing and applying HBTs. The NIH HBT Project aims to identify core needs for advancing HBT quality and use and establish a foundation for future progress. 

In this conference, HBT Project members and invited panelists will report on recent efforts and facilitate collaborative discussions to explore cross-cutting challenges and opportunities for HBT.
