When B.A.D. can be good

I’m Dr. Daryl FoyI am here to provide a brief insight into how behavioural science principles can be used practically to design a mobile app intended for behaviour support.You can find me at @mortonandlawson

Hello!

We need a foothold in theory to build effective behaviour change

Motivation for sustainable exercise is made possible by

satisfaction of 3 basic psychological needs:
