N2  - Multiple health behaviour change (MHBC) represents one of the best ways to prevent reoccurrence of cardiovascular events. However, few
individuals with cardiovascular diseases engage in this process. The
present study examined the role of compensatory health beliefs (CHB;
i.e., belief that a healthy behaviour compensates an unhealthy one)as
a drag to engagement in this process. Some studies have shown that
CHBs predict intention to engage in healthy behaviours, but no study
has investigated CHBs in individuals who actually need to change
multiple health behaviours. The goal was to better understand the
role of CHBs in intentions formation process among individuals with
cardiac diseases in an MHBC context. One hundred and four patients
completed a questionnaire at the beginning of their cardiac rehabilitation program. Results showed that: (1) CHBs negatively predicted intentions (2) but only for participants with high self-efficacy or low risk perception; (3) CHBs predictions differed depending on the nature of the compensating behaviour, and were more predictive when medication intake was the compensating one. Findings only partially confirmed previous research conducted on healthy individuals who were not in an MHBC process, and emphasized the importance of considering CHBs for individuals in this process.
