Health psychologists are interested in habits, because they hold promise for facilitating behavioural maintenance through automatic processes (Gardner, 2015; Kwasnicka et al., 2016). How we conceptualise habit has ramifications for how we promote (intervene in) and measure habit formation and maintenance. In Phillips and Mullan (2022), we offered a conceptual review of the literature, evaluating the impact of behavioural complexity on the conceptualisation of habit, using a definition of habit defined in the literature (Wood et al., 2022) as ‘direct context-response associations learned through repeatedly rewarded responding’ (p. 12). Specifically, we argued that complex behaviours (determined by their relatively greater number of preparatory and enactment steps and amount of time to prepare and enact, compared to simpler behaviours): (1) have meaningfully separable ‘responses’ that may be habitual (e.g., in their instigation vs execution or with substitutable, ‘lower order’ actions, which may themselves be habitual) and (2) rely on intrinsic rewards (versus extrinsic) for habit formation and maintenance. In response to Phillips and Mullan (2022), Gardner and Lally (2022) and Rebar et al. (2022) offer thought-provoking and valuable insights regarding these points. On the surface, these sets of authors seemingly have opposing views on advancing the topic of complex health behaviours and habit: Gardner and Lally (2022) argue for greater parsimony in habit conceptualisation for simple and complex behaviours, whereas Rebar et al. (2022) argue for even greater complexity in our conceptualisation and measurement of complex health behaviours and habits. However, we articulate in this commentary how there is much agreement, as well as room for continued debate, among these viewpoints and those in Phillips and Mullan (2022). In sum, we argue in this commentary for a practical approach to habit research for complex behaviours that is both parsimonious and appropriately complex. We contend, as do Gardner and Lally (2022), that our definition and conceptualisation of habit should be useful – useful for achieving our ultimate goal, which is to help individuals change their behaviour and to maintain behaviour changes for optimal health.","PeriodicalId":48034,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Review","volume":"17 3","pages":"497-504"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10022219","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The growing research evidence on the association between tobacco use and OCD phenomena is mixed, making it difficult to synthesize extant findings into meaningful conclusions. Indeed, there has never been a systematic review or meta-analysis of this area of research. To this end, a systematic review was carried out with studies between 1988 and 2021, and from this review, 71 independent estimations (<i>n</i> = 10,475; Females = 51.95%; mean age = 37.29, <i>SD</i> = 13.78) were extracted for meta-analysis. We found that about three in ten participants with OCD are likely to use tobacco, which is higher than the general population. The prevalence was the same among OCD participants at all levels (those with symptomology but no confirmed diagnosis, those surpassing a clinical cutoff for OCD but no confirmed diagnosis, and those with a confirmed OCD diagnosis). The results also indicated considerable variability across study results and a wide confidence interval associated with the tobacco use prevalence rate among those with OCD phenomena. The findings provide support for continued study of this comorbidity, perhaps with longitudinal and experimental designs to test for reciprocal associations between tobacco use and OCD phenomena in the service of targeting nicotine dependence as a substantial global public health concern.</p>","PeriodicalId":48034,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Review","volume":"17 3","pages":"505-519"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10495108/pdf/nihms-1924960.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10260345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this conceptual review, we contend that the definitional aspects of habit differ at a conceptual level for simple versus more complex behaviours, with ramifications for prediction, promotion, and measurement of habits. Specifically, habits are defined as <i>direct context-response associations learned through repeatedly rewarded responding</i> - but what is meant by 'response' and 'reward' depends upon the complexity of the behaviour. We review literature that suggests (1) responses in complex habits have separable and substitutable components (vs a single and static, unitary component) and (2) rewards for complex habits are necessarily continued and intrinsic (vs temporary and extrinsic, respectively). We discuss some empirical and theoretical questions raised by these issues around behavioural complexity and habit.

This review examines the psychological threat that diagnostic uncertainty imposes on individuals' need for control and understanding, and the resulting consequences experienced by patients, parents of pediatric patients, and physicians. Using compensatory control theory as a framework, we propose a taxonomy of behaviors that people may adopt in order to regain control in the face of diagnostic uncertainty and to reaffirm that the world is not random and chaotic. To manage diagnostic uncertainty, people may bolster their personal agency, affiliate with external systems they see as acting in their interest, affirm clear connections between behaviors and outcomes, and affirm nonspecific epistemic structure. Diagnostic uncertainty is approached from the perspectives of patients, parents of pediatric patients, and physicians, demonstrating how each group responds in order to maintain a sense that the world has structure and is not random.

Nearly 125 years later, the concept of habit continues to stimulate important research regarding the most useful definition of habit, and how to harness habit to understand, predict, and change health-related behaviour (e.g., Gardner, 2015; Verplanken, 2018; Wood & Runger, 2016). Phillips and Mullan (2022) offer a thoughtful synthesis of theory and evidence regarding how habit can be applied to complex health behaviours. Their review addresses an important question that habit researchers are often asked: how credible is it to propose that learned cue-behaviour associations can underpin and sustain complicated real-world health behaviours? Drawing on a definition of complex behaviour as that which involves separable components and a greater number of subactions (or ‘steps’), Phillips and Mullan address this question by suggesting that the same concept – i.e., habit – can underpin both simple and complex behaviours. Significantly however, they argue that ‘complex habits’ should be theorised differently to ‘simple habits’, to better recognise the multiple components of complex habits and the rewards that Phillips and Mullan suggest are needed for complex habits to form. In this commentary, we expand discussion of two areas of Phillips and Mullan’s argument. First, we debate aspects of the definition of habit. Second, we highlight the importance of distinguishing between ‘habit’ and ‘habitual behaviour’ when considering behavioural complexity. We argue that conceptualisations of key terms have important implications for understanding, measuring and changing habit and habitual behaviour.","PeriodicalId":48034,"journal":{"name":"Health Psychology Review","volume":"17 3","pages":"490-496"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10321511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
