*Each Behavioral Change Process factor (knowledge, contemplation, self-efficacy, and readiness) affects engagement in each of the 4 advance care planning domains (Decision Makers (DM), Quality of life (QOL), Flexibility, and Asking Questions) including the distinct planning behaviors within those domains, such as how informed one feels about DM (knowledge), how much one has thought about DM (contemplation), how confident one feels to ask a DM (self-efficacy), and how ready one feels to ask a DM (readiness).
Engagement in these Behavioral Change Processes can then lead to Action pertaining to each of the 4 advance care planning domains, including individual behaviors within those domains, such as whether the participant actually decided on, asked, discussed, and/or documented their preferred DM.
