# LEARN TO PROMOTE MORE HEALTHY BEHAVIORS

## IN YOURSELF & OTHERS

Get a glimpse into the factors and motivators behind people’s healthy behaviors in this report based on results of the first Mather Institute Research Panel survey. The report explores what 600 respondents said about their priorities for making wellness decisions and how those priorities affected the frequency of healthy behaviors (such as working toward goals or maintaining healthy relationships).

##### IN THIS RESEARCH BRIEF, YOU’LL LEARN:

- some research-based background on motivation
- the role played by self-determined motivation
- tips for using these findings to support your own healthy behaviors

## FROM THIS RESEARCH BRIEF:

“There were statistically significant differences between the high and low self-determined motivation groups on all of the healthy behaviors.”
