Adaptive Processes | Whole-Person Health Model
Adaptive Process describes how individuals adjust and respond to changing conditions over time.
The processes listed here influence how behaviors are sustained, modified, or replaced.
Awareness refers to the recognition of behaviors, patterns, or internal states as they occur. In everyday life, this means noticing what you are doing, thinking, or feeling without trying to change or explain it.
Internal Feedback Interpretation refers to the process of interpreting signals from the body, such as energy, hunger, fatigue, or mood. In everyday life, this means making sense of how you feel and what those signals might indicate.
External Data Interpretation refers to the process of interpreting external information such as measurements, tracking data, or observations. In everyday life, this means making sense of numbers, reports, or feedback from outside the body.
Experimentation refers to the process of testing changes in behavior to observe their effects. In everyday life, this means trying something new or modifying a routine to see what happens.
Adjustment refers to the deliberate modification of behaviors based on observed results or experience. In everyday life, this means making a clear change in what you do after learning what works and what does not.
Behavior Integration refers to the incorporation of behaviors into existing daily routines, so they fit naturally within the flow of everyday life. In everyday terms, this means making behaviors work within your real schedule and responsibilities.
Maintenance refers to the continued performance of behaviors once they have become established. In everyday life, this means maintaining behaviors over time once they are part of your routine.
Re-engagement refers to the process of returning to supportive behaviors after a disruption or lapse. In everyday life, this means getting back on track after routines are disrupted.
Long-Term Adaptation refers to the stabilization of behaviors and their effects over time as a result of sustained patterns. In everyday life, this means what becomes steady and predictable after months or years of consistent behavior.
Expectation Management refers to aligning expectations with realistic timelines and outcomes. In everyday life, this means understanding what results to expect and how long they typically take.
Complexity Reduction refers to the simplification of behaviors or routines to make them easier to perform consistently. In everyday life, this means reducing unnecessary steps, decisions, or effort.
Cognitive Load refers to the mental effort required to manage tasks, decisions, and responsibilities. In everyday life, this means how much your mind is handling at any given time.
