Health professionals' intentions predict their behavior similarly to non-clinicians. This supports using intention-behavior models in implementation research for healthcare practice change.

Area of Science:

  • Behavioral Science
  • Health Services Research
  • Implementation Science

Background:

  • Implementation research systematically studies the adoption of clinical findings into practice.
  • Understanding behavior change in healthcare professionals is crucial due to intervention heterogeneity.
  • Intention-behavior theories, effective in non-clinical settings, may guide clinical practice implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the relationship between intention and behavior in clinicians.
  • To compare the clinician intention-behavior relationship with that in non-clinicians.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature search across multiple databases (PsycINFO, MEDLINE, EMBASE, etc.).
  • Inclusion criteria: clinical behavior, clinical context, intention and behavior measures, quantitative analysis.

  • Independent screening by two reviewers, with disagreements resolved by discussion.

    • Main Results:

    • Ten studies involving 1623 health professionals were analyzed.
    • Intention explained a similar proportion of behavioral variance as in non-health professional studies.
    • The intention-behavior link was more consistent when correspondence was good and behavior was self-reported.

    Conclusions:

    • A predictable relationship exists between health professionals' intentions and their subsequent behaviors.
    • Findings align with the broader literature on intention-behavior relationships.
    • Methodological challenges in this research area persist.
