    more of these interventions.
  • Also look at scalability of an intervention
42
Q

op welke van de factoren die belangrijk zijn om van ideation naar behaviour te gaan kunnen we de preventiemethoden vooral inzetten

access to means: mensen zullen niet heel snel een andere methode kiezen als je er eentje blokkeert. bv golden gate bridge. misschien komt dit door mental imagery (als je het je zo hebt voorgesteld, dan niet op een andere manier doen?)

    burdensomeness, entrapment).
