我们提出了预防措施采用过程模型——一种阶段理论，由无知和完成预防行动之间的七个不同状态组成。这些阶段是“不知道问题”、“意识到问题但没有亲自参与”、“参与并决定做什么”、“计划采取行动但尚未采取行动”、“已决定不采取行动”、“采取行动”和“维持”。该理论认为，这些阶段代表了不同性质的行为、信念和经验模式，并且产生阶段之间转变的因素根据所考虑的具体转变而变化。对七项家庭氡气测试研究的数据进行了检查，以检验该模型提出的一些主张。保护行为的阶段理论与将预防措施的采用视为沿着行动可能性的单一连续体的运动的理论形成鲜明对比。
We present the precaution adoption process model-a stage theory consisting of seven distinct states between ignorance and completed preventive action. The stages are "unaware of the issue," "aware of the issue but not personally engaged," "engaged and deciding what to do," "planning to act but not yet having acted," "having decided not to act," "acting," and "maintenance." The theory asserts that these stages represent qualitatively different patterns of behavior, beliefs, and experience and that the factors that produce transitions between stages vary depending on the specific transition being considered. Data from seven studies of home radon testing are examined to test some of the claims made by this model. Stage theories of protective behavior are contrasted with theories that see precaution adoption in terms of movement along a single continuum of action likelihood.
