Graduates from a Phase II cardiac rehabilitation program were surveyed about their maintenance of healthy lifestyle changes from 1 to 4 years after completing the program. Patients were queried about ...their continued performance of routine aerobic exercise; use of safe exercise principles; adherence to a low‐fat, low‐cholesterol diet; and surveillance of lipid levels. Results showed that 74% of patient graduates reported exercising aerobically three to four times weekly, and 50% used their pulse rate to guide exercise intensity. The patients were also asked their opinions about the value of the cardiac rehabilitation program; 91% of patients reported an improvement in their quality of life, and 97% felt the program was a good use of insurance dollars. The findings of this study have implications for program evaluation and modification.

The task force on cigarette smoking research in health psychology addressed three questions: What are the major current research directions of health psychologists on this topic? What are the major ...future research directions that health psychologists should address on this topic? What barriers to smoking research exist for health psychologists? Discussion of current research focused on five areas: prevention, cessation, relapse, basic science research, and public policy. Smoking prevention research centers on school-based interventions in longitudinal trials targeting adolescent substance abuse--including cigarette smoking--and focusing on the processes influenced by the intervention that, in turn, prevent smoking. Research also is being conducted outside the school setting to test community-wide public information campaigns and to reach adolescents in other social groups.
