Abstract

Efforts to improve health-care quality and efficiency will fail if patients with chronic disease do not adhere to medications and healthy lifestyles. A novel, psychological approach is to change behavior using ‘affect’ and ‘affirmations’. We explore this strategy’s potential, when added to the existing arsenal of interventions, to improve adherence.
