The transtheoretical model is a health behavior model used to understand an individual's readiness to change their behavior. This study aims to apply the transtheoretical model in understanding a person with stroke's readiness to change their activity level, as it relates to physical capacity, physical health, depressive symptoms, self-efficacy, and daily stepping activity.
