Progressing implementation of behavior change frameworks for digital health interventions: challenges and ways forward
New TMFs with a focus on digital technologies have the potential to improve the efficacy and outcomes of digital behavior-change interventions, but their accessibility, evidence base, and reporting must improve to facilitate their adoption in intervention design. Further review work comparing the novel TMFs with traditional frameworks and a repository to guide researchers in framework selection could also help with faster uptake.
