An Internet-based diabetes self-care intervention tailored to
self-efficacy -
http://her.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/cym014v1
"The main implication of this study for diabetes educators and
behavioural counsellors more generally is that initial level of SE
(self-efficacy) provides relevant information for tailoring behavioural
intervention for diabetes self-care to the individual. Perhaps more
specifically, that one should not necessarily address the biggest
challenge first. Targeting the behaviour for which the individual has
the highest initial SE may not only lead to further improvement of that
behaviour, but also have carry-over effects on other behaviours."

Interesting concept, Frank... Thanks. Sometimes the best approach is
not always the most obvious.
