Which intervention strategy is recommended for the precontemplation stage?

Preparing for relapses
Evaluating support systems
Increasing awareness of exercise benefits
Providing encouragement

The correct answer is: Increasing awareness of exercise benefits

Providing encouragement is not the best intervention strategy for the precontemplation stage because individuals in this stage are not yet considering change and do not respond well to encouragement. Preparing for relapses may be useful for individuals in the action or maintenance stages, but not for those in the precontemplation stage. Evaluating support systems may be helpful in later stages, but in the precontemplation stage, individuals are not ready to ask for or utilize support. Increasing awareness of exercise benefits is the most effective intervention strategy for the precontemplation stage because it helps individuals gain knowledge and understanding of the benefits of exercise, which can lead to a change in mindset and eventually progress towards the contemplation stage.
